How occupational therapy may help

Occupational therapy focuses on helping people participate more safely and effectively in the activities they need or want to do every day.

Depending on the individual, occupational therapy may assist with:

• self-care and daily living skills

• fine motor skills and hand function

• sensory processing and regulation support

• fatigue management and pacing

• school, home or community routines

• equipment and assistive technology recommendations

• home function, safety and access

• independence and participation in everyday life

Support is always tailored to the person’s goals, age, environment and day-to-day needs.

Clinic-based occupational therapy in Perth

Although this page is optimised for people searching for occupational therapy in Perth, our main OT clinic location is Malaga. Many clients from across Perth choose to attend our Malaga clinic for occupational therapy because it offers a dedicated allied health environment with access to a broader therapy team and purpose-designed therapy spaces.

Clinic-based occupational therapy may be a good option for clients who:

• prefer a structured therapy environment

• are able to travel to appointments

• benefit from regular review in clinic

• want access to a broader allied health service in one place
  
  

Mobile occupational therapy across Perth

For some clients, mobile occupational therapy may also be available across parts of Perth and surrounding areas. Mobile OT can be particularly useful when support is best delivered in the person’s own environment, such as at home, school, supported accommodation or in the community.

Mobile OT may be especially helpful when:

• the person’s challenges are most noticeable at home

• home setup or safety is part of the issue

• a home-based functional assessment is needed

• travel is difficult

• carers or family members would benefit from support in the everyday environment

Service availability depends on therapist availability, travel area, and the type of support required.

Who We Support

We support children, adults and older adults with disability, injury, chronic conditions, developmental concerns, communication needs, mobility challenges and rehabilitation goals.
