Occupational therapy can help toddlers and young children to develop key motor & play skills, and the coordination necessary for completing tasks at school, playing with friends, or completing basic self care tasks. We’ll support their relevant developmental needs at this stage too. Speech pathology can help young children to develop early communication skills such as using words and sentences, understanding instructions and concepts, and using speech sounds.
Children with complex needs or diagnoses such as ASD, ADHD, or DCD, or those with chromosomal or genetic conditions might need some extra support to develop key skills. Our occupational therapists and speech pathologists can work with them to develop self care, learning, communication and social skills.
At OCC Therapy, we strive to provide flexible solutions for families in the way we provide both therapy and support. We’re pleased to introduce a new Telehealth service to our clients. It means we can now run interactive sessions via encrypted Microsoft Teams video calls. Here, therapists will be able to utilise various programs and tools to engage clients and work towards their goals.
We’re also pleased to provide parental coaching via Telehealth and are able to fit many families around their busy schedules. We believe offering Telehealth services will benefit more of our remote families as we can eliminate the need for travel.
