Focused, evidence based occupational therapy for the developmental foundations beneath your child’s learning, regulation and participation, so they can feel settled, capable and engaged.
Every family begins with an assessment. From there, we discuss what your child needs and what suits your family, and the next step is yours to choose.
This is where we become curious about what your child’s brain and body are working with, how that shapes what you and their educators see, and which goals and supports will serve them best.

A comprehensive clinical picture of your child’s development, identifying what is driving the difficulties and mapping exactly what will help. You leave with a clear clinical direction and a defined plan, not a list of observations.
A classroom observation of your child at school, with a written report, so home and classroom work to the same plan. This can be added at any stage, not only at the start.
School consultations on their own, without an observation, are also available at the standard session rate.
Any of these can be your next step, on its own or together, and we decide which after your assessment. Weekly or fortnightly, at a pace that suits your family.
A focused block that lays the groundwork before anything else. Five 50-minute sessions across two weeks, in term time or the holidays, giving the body the concentrated repetition it needs to establish a strong base.
Individual 50-minute sessions at home or at school, weekly or fortnightly, in term time or the holidays. Where sessions are at school, parent coaching sessions are recommended alongside them so the work carries into home.
Online sessions with you, not your child, weekly or fortnightly. You learn the activities, the reasoning behind them and how to co-regulate, so the repetition that drives change happens at home, led by you.
A self-paced program for families who want to understand their child’s development and carry the work at home, with the same approach, in your own time.
Families work with me in different ways. Some complete a block and carry the work forward themselves; others choose to keep me alongside them week to week for as long as it is of value. In every case the intention is the same: that you understand your child’s development, know what the therapy is doing and why, and continue because you choose to, not because an end point was never set. Everything on this page is built towards that, and the pricing is set out openly so you can plan with confidence.

Sessions are $260 each. Combine them with the Foundational Intensive, or estimate them on their own.

Wondering what you would actually pay? Most families claim a good portion back.
Your program can be itemised into individual sessions, including parent coaching sessions and report writing, so there is more for you to claim against.
Choose how you plan to claim. Each invoice goes to one rebate service only, though different invoices can go to different services.
Extras vary by fund and cover, so enter your own figures. Assessment invoices usually aren't claimable through private health, so only therapy sessions are counted.
Medicare then adds a rebate on up to 5 therapy invoices, at about $61.80 each, on top of your private health. These are different invoices, so nothing is claimed twice.
With a GP Chronic Disease Management plan, Medicare rebates about $61.80 per session for up to 5 sessions a year. Assessment invoices aren't counted here.
If you're self or plan managed with OT funding, these services should be covered in full, subject to your allocation, and itemised to NDIS pricing. We can't support agency managed plans.
Enter your figures above to estimate.
A guide only, built from the figures you enter. Please confirm your own entitlements with your fund, GP or plan manager. A full itemised breakdown comes with your personalised quote.
Programs are fixed-price packages, itemised to support NDIS, private health and Medicare claims. All pricing is confirmed with you in writing before your place is secured.
Every activity is purposeful movement with a clear target.
With the demands of the school day reduced, many children have more capacity to build new pathways, assessments are often more accurate, and new routines are easier to establish. If weekday appointments are difficult in term, the holidays are usually when an assessment or a block of therapy can be arranged. Booking before the holidays begin is recommended to secure your preferred times, though not essential; if you have a period in mind, let me know.
Holiday blocks follow an assessment. Once yours is complete, email to plan a block in advance.
A few of the practical things parents like to understand before we begin.
Sessions run in term time and in the school holidays, Monday to Friday. If weekdays in term are hard to manage, the holidays are often a convenient time to complete an assessment or begin a block. Booking before the holidays begin is recommended to secure your preferred times, though it is not essential.
We begin with the Comprehensive Developmental Assessment to build a clear picture of your child, followed by recommendations tailored to their needs. From there we choose the right program together, at a pace that suits your family.
Any of them, and often a mix. The Foundational Intensive is five sessions across two weeks; Integrating Individual Sessions and Virtual Parent and Home Coaching are booked weekly or fortnightly as you need them. After a block, some families take a break to let the progress settle, others continue with individual sessions or coaching. We decide together based on what your child needs.
At home and at school, the environments where children are most comfortable and where the work can carry into everyday routines. I only need a small space and I bring everything with me, so no home is too small.
Very well, with a parent at the centre of it. Activities are emailed ahead, we meet on Zoom, and you work with your child while I guide and coach you on screen. A parent or another adult is present throughout, which is exactly what helps the work translate into lasting change.
A focused conversation with Ella to understand your child, and a clear sense of the path forward.
