Following an assessment, individual therapy sessions may be recommended for your child (45 minute sessions). Individual therapy involves working directly with your child on activities that promote their skill level, build their confidence and are fun. During this block of treatment, home activity suggestions will be provided for you to incorporate into your daily routine. Liaison with your child’s teacher and/or other health professionals may occur at this point to ensure all parties involved are working towards a common goal.
An initial assessment is booked for 90 minutes where a series of specifically chosen standardised and non-standardised tests are carried out on your child.
Our meet & greet sessions are designed for those families who may not be sure on whether or not OT will be best suited to them.
We feel that it is important to conduct review assessments for children who have participated in therapy on an ongoing basis.
Screenings can be conducted at various schools and reschools upon request. An Occupational Therapist will come to you on site, and screen each child.
Our group therapy programs include school readiness programs, music and movement groups, Motor Skills groups, fussy eating groups and social skills groups.
School-based therapy is beneficial for the child as it allows for a direct relationship between the therapist and the teacher. (School visits are subject to availability.)
Parent & Teacher workshops can be tailored to meet your needs and can be held on site or at our Happy Dots clinics.
We stock a wide variety of OT based resources & products that we feel your child would benefit from a result of attending our therapy sessions. We have a selection of resources available in each of our clinics.
We are able to offer home visits on a regular basis, or as a one off consultancy based visit to help set up strategies for your home environment. Home visits are subject to availability & location.
Telehealth options are available to families who live out of area or can not get to the clinic for a face-to-face appointment.
We are excited to provide community outreach therapy to rural areas. Please enquire if this is something you are interested in.
