At Embracelife Therapy, we provide services for speech therapy and occupational therapy.
Speech Therapy
Speech Pathologists work with individuals and those who support them (e.g. parents/carers, teachers, support workers, employers) to achieve their communication and/or mealtime goals in a range of settings such as at home, in the classroom, the workplace or the community.
We can provide a personalised assessment and intervention program for individuals who need support with:
Speech – speaking clearly and being understood
Stuttering – speaking smoothly
Voice – what it sounds like and volume
Swallowing – eating and drinking
Language – understanding others and putting ideas and thoughts together
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) – using different forms of communication (e.g. communication boards, technology, Key Word Sign)
Literacy – reading, spelling and written expression
Play and Social Skills – interacting with others
Occupational Therapy
Occupational Therapists work with individuals and those who support them (e.g. parents/carers, teachers, support workers, employers) to increase their ability to physically access and participate in a range of settings such as at home, in the classroom, the workplace or the community.
At Embracelife Therapy, we also offer a play-based and relationship-based approach to children, young adults and their families. Our focus is to facilitate successful social, emotional, behavioural, physical and cognitive development of our children, young adults and their families.
We can provide a personalised assessment and intervention program for individuals who need support with:
Play and social skills - interacting with others (e.g. creative play, turn-taking)
Sensory processing - being aware of, understanding and responding to sensory information (e.g. sound, touch, sight, movement, taste, smell).
Cognition - attending to a task or activity, problem solving and organisational skills
Fine motor skills - moving small muscles in the hands (e.g. tying shoe laces, writing with a pencil, picking up and releasing objects).
Self-care skills - developing skills and carrying out daily routines (e.g. dressing, showering, toileting, meal times) with or without equipment (e.g. commodes, adapted cutlery).
Mobility - moving and participating in activities with or without equipment (e.g. specialised seating, wheelchairs, hoists).
Access and manual handling - moving around safely with or without equipment, modifications to the environment (e.g. rails, ramps, steps) and the support of another person (e.g. transfers).
