Services
We assess and treat children 4 - 18 years in the following areas:Â
SENSORY PROCESSING AND MODULATION DIFFICULTIES
What It Is
Sensory processing is how the brain understands and responds to input like sound, touch, or movement. Sensory modulation helps children stay calm, focused, and regulated.
Why It Matters
When this process is out of sync, children might overreact to things like noise or touch, struggle with routines, or feel overwhelmed.
How I Help
I use sensory-informed strategies to support emotional regulation and daily comfort. In telehealth sessions, I guide parents and children through playful, practical routines to promote calm attention and coping across home and school settings.
FINE MOTOR AND EYE-HAND COORDINATION SKILLS
What It Is
Fine motor skills are the small hand movements used for tasks like writing, cutting, and buttoning. Eye-hand coordination helps guide those movements based on what we see.
Why It Matters
When these skills are tricky, children may avoid writing, crafts, or self-care, often feeling tired or frustrated by tasks others find easy.
How I Help
I assess what’s behind the struggle and guide families through online OT, in purposeful, everyday activities that strengthen coordination and tool use, building confidence and endurance.
POSTURE AND ENDURANCE
What It Is
Postural control is a child’s ability to stay upright and steady. Endurance helps them keep going without tiring or losing focus.
Why It Matters
Weak posture or low stamina can make it hard to sit still, focus, or keep up, especially during school or group activities.
How I Help
I explore factors like posture, balance, and body awareness, and share home-based movement routines designed to support strength, stamina, and engagement in learning and play.
GROSS MOTOR AND COORDINATION SKILLS
What It Is
Gross motor skills are the big movements used for sitting, walking, running, and balancing — key for physical confidence and coordination.
Why It Matters
When these skills are weak, children may tire easily, trip often, or avoid active play, which can affect confidence and learning.
Â
How I Help
I assess movement and coordination, then guide families through fun, home-based activities that help build strength, balance, and body control.
SELF-REGULATION
What It Is
Self-regulation is how a child manages emotions, energy, and behaviour in daily situations.
Why It Matters
When it’s hard to stay calm or switch gears, children may meltdown easily, struggle with routines, and feel overwhelmed, leaving families drained.
How I Help
I help uncover the sensory and emotional factors behind regulation challenges. Using telehealth-based coaching, I show parents and children strategies for helping managing energy, transitions, and big feelings in everyday situations.
VISUAL PERCEPTION
What It Is
Visual perception is how the brain makes sense of what the eyes see ,like letters, shapes, and patterns.
Why It Matters
children with visual perception challenges may reverse letters, struggle with puzzles, or find copying from the board difficult, impacting learning and confidence.Â
How I Help
I identify how your child processes visual information, including spatial awareness and discrimination. Through guided telehealth activities, I support the development of visual–spatial skills essential for reading, writing, and organising tasks.
Â
EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING
What It Is
Executive functioning includes planning, organising, remembering, and managing attention and emotions.
Why It Matters
When these skills are tricky, children may forget steps, lose focus, or struggle with routines, affecting confidence and daily success.
How I Help
I work with families to understand how planning, attention, and memory skills impact daily routines. In online OT sessions, I introduce tailored strategies—like visual supports, task breakdowns, and routines—to help boost independence and ease frustration.
Â
AYRES SENSORY INTEGRATION
What It Is
Ayres Sensory Integration® looks at how the brain processes sensory input to support movement, learning, and behaviour. A key part is motor planning — the ability to think of an action, plan it, and carry it out smoothly.
Why It Matters
When sensory systems aren’t well coordinated, children may seem clumsy, avoid movement, or freeze when unsure. Everyday tasks can feel confusing or overwhelming.
How I Help
Sensory integration is a special interest area of mine. I assess how your child’s brain and body work together, then guide fun, play-based telehealth activities to support motor planning, body awareness, and sensory organisation — all tailored to real life at home
Â
HANDWRITING
What It Is
Handwriting is a complex skill that involves fine motor control, visual processing, body awareness, and focus. It’s more than forming letters — it’s a brain-body task that supports learning and communication.
Why It Matters
Despite the digital age, handwriting remains essential for memory, reading, and school success. If writing is slow, tiring, or hard to read, it can hold children back from showing what they know.
How I Help
Handwriting is a special interest of mine. I assess the fine motor, sensory, and planning skills underlying handwriting challenges. Guided by online OT coaching, I help families use enjoyable, effective activities that improve writing fluency, legibility, and confidence.
