What is Occupational Therapy?

Our therapeutic interventions are grounded in evidence based practice and shaped by a clear understanding of each young persons strengths, challenges and day to day functioning. Using occupational science we provide meaningful, purposeful therapy that supports independence, regulation and participation in everyday life. Sessions are delivered in a person centered way, with activities tailored to their individual goals identified through assessment and collaboration with families, education settings and other professionals.

What Are "Occupations"?

An occupation is anything you do that occupies your time.

These can be activities that are necessary for activities of daily living (ADL's) such as self care. They can also be more personal, such as hobbies or anything that contributes to your physical and mental wellbeing.
