What is Occupational Therapy?

Occupational Therapy supports people to take part in the everyday activities that matter most. This is known as occupations. These include:

  • – Play
  • – Learning
  • – Self-care
  • – Work
  • – Relationships and daily routines

 

When physical, emotional, sensory or cognitive challenges make these activities harder, Occupational Therapy helps find practical ways to restore participation and confidence.

Occupational Therapy supports children, adolescents and older adults who are finding everyday activities challenging. This might include:

  • – A child developing motor/sensory skills
  • – A teenager building independence
  • – An adult recovering from injury
  • – An older adult wanting to maintain safety and confidence at home

Who is an Occupational Therapist?

Occupational Therapists are university-trained allied health professionals who understand how physical, cognitive, emotional and environmental factors impact daily life.

They look at the whole person (not just the diagnosis) and work collaboratively to build skills, adapt environments and create practical strategies that make everyday life more
manageable.

Why do I need Occupational Therapy?
