Getting Started
Everything you need to begin
A defined process, a clear path, and support that comes to you. Here is how to get started and what to expect.

Reaching out is the first and easiest step. Whether you have a clear sense of what you are looking for or are simply not sure where to begin, you are welcome to get in touch. There is no referral needed to start.
The initial consultation is a focused clinical session with Ella, where we build a genuine understanding of your child or yourself, the concerns, the history, and what you are hoping to achieve. It is the foundation that everything else is shaped around, and the difference between generic support and care that is truly individualised.
You leave with clarity, direction, and a sense of exactly how Ella can help, the considered, professional starting point that quality outcomes are built on.
Integrate & Regulate is a mobile practice. Sessions for children are home and school based across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, from Vaucluse and Watsons Bay to Kingsford, with other suburbs on request, subject to scheduling and timing. Telehealth is available Australia wide, including for families in regional and rural areas.
Integrate & Regulate welcomes referrals from GPs, paediatricians, psychologists, psychiatrists, schools and allied health colleagues. Care is collaborative by design, with clear communication and a shared goal of supporting the child or client well.
Structured, individualised assessment across reflex, sensory and functional domains, with findings and recommendations clearly documented.
Timely, professional liaison and written reports, with consent, to keep the team around the child aligned.
A registered Occupational Therapist working within scope, referring on where another service is the better fit.
Referrers are warmly welcome to call or email to discuss a potential referral or the suitability of the approach for a particular child or client.
Here is exactly what happens once you get in touch, so you know what to expect every step of the way.
A dedicated clinical conversation about your child or yourself, and what you are hoping to support. We begin to shape the right path together. There is no referral needed to begin.
A thorough, clinical assessment, the Comprehensive Developmental Assessment, with the school picture added if helpful, builds a clear, individualised picture, with recommendations tailored to your goals.
With that clarity, we choose the program or support that fits best, at a pace and in a format that suits your family.
The work begins, with ongoing support, your Individualised Implementation Plan and collaboration so progress feels steady and supported.
You are welcome to reach out directly at any time. If you are claiming through Medicare or certain funding, some paperwork may apply, and I can help you understand what is needed.
Travel is included in the cost of every program. For the outer Eastern Suburbs, or where a session involves additional services, a small travel component may apply, and this is always confirmed with you before you book.
Reach out whenever you feel ready. Together we can bring focused support home, into the everyday spaces where your child is most themselves.
