Our team of professionals work to ensure our clients and their families can attain the best possible outcomes. We work closely with families and teachers to enable them to make informed choices about their child’s or students management.

Our clinic focuses on the provision of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) to children from 18 months to four years of age with developmental delays or diagnoses. The program has received international acclaim and we are proud to be one of few services offering the program in WA. This program is run by professionally trained occupational therapists and speech and language pathologists who provide a combination of intensive one-on-one therapy and small groups, working on all aspects of a child’s development.

Our team of therapists and speech pathologists provide care for children and young people who are challenged with:

  • Autism spectrum disorder
  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
  • Sensory processing disorder
  • Developmental delay
