Our Services
We provide mental health occupational therapy services to help individuals improve independence and quality of life.

Functional Capacity Assessments
Our Functional Capacity Assessments (FCAs) provide a comprehensive understanding of a client’s abilities and challenges in daily life. These assessments include in-depth client interviews, input from support networks, review of relevant documentation, direct assessments, and collaboration with other care providers.
We take a holistic approach, highlighting strengths while identifying areas requiring additional support. Each FCA is tailored to advocate for the client’s needs, ensuring access to appropriate services and supports for effective disability management.
Our services include:
- Functional Capacity Assessments
- Psychosocial Functional Capacity Assessments
- Supported Disability Accommodation (SDA) Assessments
- Supported Independent Living (SIL) Assessments
These evaluations help participants secure the right level of NDIS funding and support to achieve their goals and enhance their quality of life.

With empathy and respect, we collaborate with you and your support network to help you take ownership of the process, empowering you to achieve what matters most—whether at home or in the community.
We believe in a judgment-free, supportive approach, fostering trust and understanding to guide you toward a healthy, purposeful life, now and into the future.
