How We Work
Evidence-Based Therapy Grounded in Clarity and Care
Services are delivered via telehealth, with flexible package or hourly options.
How Our Online OT Services Work
Our therapy is delivered online and grounded in data-informed assessment and family-led goals.
Services are billed as packages or at an hourly rate. (see below)
Please note: we do not provide formal diagnoses. Our assessments highlight everyday strengths and challenges to support your child’s broader healthcare team in any diagnostic investigations.
Skill Sense OT is NOT NDIS-registered, but may support self-managed participants with functional capacity assessments (subject to availability). Please contact us to enquire about functional capacity assessments, as it is not a single appointment, or a quick report.
The first step is an assessment
At Skill Sense, assessment is the first step to understanding your child’s unique strengths and challenges.
Our detailed evaluations form the foundation for meaningful, evidence-informed support.
Assessments are offered as packages, with full payment required before each step.
We’re happy to discuss timing to help with budget planning.
