What does an Occupational Therapist (OT) do?
We support children to build the skills they need to participate confidently in everyday life—at home, school, and in the community. This includes emotional regulation, fine and gross motor skills, sensory processing, behaviour support, self-care skills, handwriting, play development, and more.
Who do you work with?
We work with children, young people, families, educators, and support networks. We support NDIS participants (plan-managed and self-managed) and private-paying clients.
Do you offer in-person or telehealth sessions?
We primarily offer telehealth sessions, allowing children to access meaningful, flexible support within their everyday environments. Dependant on client location, we offer in person community sessions such as in schools or early childhood settings. We also provide limited in-person outreach days in selected locations within 300km of Yeppoon, based on demand and therapist availability. This approach allows us to deliver consistent, accessible therapy tailored to each family’s needs. As our service grows, we plan to expand in-person sessions within Yeppoon, allowing families to access local support in the future.
How do telehealth sessions work?
Sessions are delivered through secure, private video calls. You will receive a link before each session and guidance on how to set up your child’s space for success.
What ages do you support?
We primarily work with children aged 1–18, but younger or older clients may be accepted depending on clinical need.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can contact us directly. A GP or paediatrician referral is welcome but not required.
When are invoices due?
Invoices are due within 7 days, unless stated otherwise.
What happens if invoices aren’t paid?
After two unpaid invoices, services are automatically paused until the account is brought up to date. Continued non-payment may result in referral to a debt collection agency, with recovery costs passed on, as stated in the Service Agreement.
What is your cancellation policy?
We require 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule.
Late cancellations or missed appointments incur a full session fee as per the Service Agreement.
Why is there a cancellation fee?
Your appointment time is reserved exclusively for your child. Late cancellations mean we cannot offer the slot to another family.
What if my child is sick?
If your child is unwell, please notify us as soon as possible. Telehealth may be considered on a case by case basis.
What happens in a typical OT session?
Sessions focus on your child’s goals and may include:
-
Skill-building activities
-
Sensory or motor strategies
-
Emotional regulation tools
-
Parent coaching
-
Review of progress and next steps
