We help neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults build everyday skills, manage emotions, and thrive through personalised, play-based occupational therapy.
Whether it’s brushing teeth, joining a classroom, managing big emotions, or making friends, our occupational therapists help young people gain the skills they need for everyday life.
We support neuro-divergent children and teens (ages 0–24) in a way that feels safe, respectful, and genuinely helpful, for both your child and your family.
Therapy sessions are available in-clinic (Blackburn), at home, at school, or online, so your child feels supported wherever they are.
Step inside our purpose-built space—designed to feel calm, comfortable, and empowering for every visit.
