How we can help

No matter where you’re at on your therapy journey, we offer a range of services, programs and evidenced-based therapies to realise your goals.

Please note, available services and programs vary between clinics, so please check with your local clinic about their therapy services.

Programs

As part of your therapy journey your therapist we may recommend some specific therapy programs to assist in achieving your goals including:

Interventions are designed to achieve functional outcomes that support the child with what they want and need to do for healthy development, participation and independence.

Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets is an approach to speech disorders that encompasses the use of physical prompts to give a client sensory feedback about the positioning of their lips, tongue and jaw.

Facilitated by our therapists, group programs are a fun way to meet others and create connections while learning and developing skills.

Feuerstein programs are a powerful way to help people of all ages understand their emotions, think more flexibly and improve their decision-making skills. 

We can provide tailored handwriting therapy and remediation programs to assist your child to become a more confident and efficient writer.
