✨Meet the Evolve Team ✨

Welcome to our new series, where you’ll get to know the faces behind Evolve, one team member at a time! 

First up is Elle, one of our paediatric occupational therapists 👋

🧠 At work: Elle loves helping kids and young people understand their brains and bodies, build confidence and independence and feel successful in the things that matter most to them. She’s especially passionate about neurodiversity affirming practice, emotional and sensory regulation, interoception, executive functioning and social connection. Elle’s sessions are fun, practical and meaningful.

🏃‍♀️ Outside of work: You’ll find Elle at Pilates, out for a run or on a long walk. She’s happiest at the beach, catching up with friends and soaking up the sunshine. She has a family dog called Lenny and hopes to add another dog to the mix one day! 

🍴Favourite food: Cookies and a really good salad.

👀 Fun fact: Elle has done a full lap of Australia and lived to tell the tale after nearly being taken out by a cassowary along the way!

✈️ Bucket list: Visiting Lapland at Christmas time to meet Santa.

🌟 Favourite regulation strategy: A warm shower in the dark with her ripple light to help wind down for the evening.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers to our most frequently asked questions, or contact a member of the team.

Occupational therapists are healthcare professionals who specialise in the field of occupational therapy. Their role is to help individuals, including children and adults, who have physical, cognitive, or mental health conditions to achieve their goals and participate in meaningful activities of daily living.

Occupational therapy is a holistic approach that focuses on improving a person’s overall well-being by addressing physical, mental, and emotional aspects through the use of therapeutic activities and exercises.

Occupational therapists work with their clients to develop personalised treatment plans and evaluate progress to help them reach their maximum potential. The goal of occupational therapy is to enable individuals to lead fulfilling and independent lives.

An example of occupational therapy services provided by an occupational therapist is working with a child who has difficulty with fine motor skills, such as grasping objects or completing tasks that require dexterity. The occupational therapist would assess the child’s abilities and provide therapeutic activities and exercises to improve their fine motor skills. This could include activities such as playing with putty, using therapy scissors, or manipulating small objects.

The occupational therapist would also work with the child to incorporate these skills into daily activities and provide recommendations to the caregiver or teacher on how to support the child’s progress. These services, also known as OT services, are a crucial part of the occupational therapy treatment plan aimed at helping the child achieve their full potential and lead an independent and fulfilling life.

Occupational therapy Perth-wide and beyond can be helpful if you’re living with an ongoing medical condition. Occupational therapists in Perth are trained to help individuals who have physical, cognitive, or mental health conditions to participate in meaningful activities of daily living.

An NDIS occupational therapist in Perth can assist with a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to:

  • Developmental delays and disabilities
  • Musculoskeletal injuries and chronic pain
  • Neurological conditions such as stroke or traumatic brain injury
  • Mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression
  • Hand injuries and conditions affecting fine motor skills
  • Occupational therapy for people with autism

The goal of Perth occupational therapy or OT Perth services is to help individuals achieve their maximum potential and improve their overall quality of life. Occupational therapists in Perth use a range of therapeutic activities and exercises, tailored to each individual’s needs, to help them achieve their goals.

These services are an essential part of the rehabilitation process and can be provided in a variety of settings, including the clinic, school, or home. Whether you are seeking help for yourself or a loved one, as one of qualified ndis occupational therapy providers can help you achieve your goals and lead a more fulfilling life.
