WHAT OT CAN HELP WITH

OT can help with the everyday things that hold you back.

If executive function, sensory overwhelm, driving anxiety, workplace strain or day-to-day admin has become unsustainable, OT gives you practical, personalised strategies that fit your life — not a generic worksheet.

You struggle with:

  • ✷ Getting started on tasks — even ones you care about
  • ✷ Sensory overload from noise, light or crowded environments
  • ✷ Managing NDIS paperwork, appointments and life admin
  • ✷ Driving anxiety or medical fitness-to-drive concerns
  • ✷ Workplace burnout and finding sustainable accommodations
  • ✷ Building routines that survive the week without collapsing

Executive · 01

Planning, focus and follow-through strategies that stick.

Frequent careless errors, drifting focus, or shying away from intricate tasks. Daydreaming and easily sidetracked.

Sensory · 02

Regulating sound, light and social overwhelm.

Tasks left to the last moment, items misplaced or forgotten, struggle to keep systems and routines in place.

Driving · 03

On-road and off-road driving assessment.

Trouble staying seated when expected, frequent shifts in posture, a body that won’t quite settle.

Workplace · 04

Reasonable adjustments for work and study.

Answering before instructions are complete, struggle to wait for a turn, conversations that run away from you.

Questions

What adults actually ask us.

Have a question that isn’t here? Submit an enquiry below.

An OT driving assessment evaluates your medical fitness to drive. It includes an off-road cognitive and physical component plus an on-road drive with a specialist OT and accredited driving instructor. We provide a report for licensing, insurance or specialist referral.
The discovery call is a free 15-minute conversation with our intake team. We answer your questions, explain the OT pathway that fits your situation (driving, NDIS, ADHD, autism, workplace) and walk through funding options. No commitment, just a chance to feel out the fit.
Yes. We deliver Functional Capacity Assessments (FCAs), Assistive Technology assessments, and Capacity Building sessions for NDIS participants. If you’re self-managed or plan-managed you can book directly; NDIA-managed participants please check with your Coordinator.
Gather any relevant medical history, previous reports (psychology, neuropsych, GP), current NDIS plan if applicable, and a list of the specific challenges you want addressed. The more context we have, the more targeted your assessment and plan will be.
Adults 18+ seeking OT for: fitness-to-drive assessment, NDIS support, ADHD or autism-related executive function and sensory needs, PDA support, workplace or study adjustments, or building sustainable daily routines.
No. You can self-refer for private OT sessions. For NDIS-funded work you’ll need an NDIS plan. Driving assessments may require a GP or specialist referral depending on your licensing authority — we’ll walk you through what’s needed.
Sessions run 45–60 minutes, weekly or fortnightly, either in-clinic at East Melbourne or via telehealth. We work on your specific goals — from executive function scaffolds and sensory strategies to workplace advocacy and daily-living skills — with practical between-session tasks so progress happens between visits, not just in the room.
Most adult OT sessions — executive function coaching, sensory regulation planning, NDIS support, and coaching around workplace and daily-living strategies — can be delivered securely via video. In-person is required for driving assessments and some assistive-technology fittings.
