CoastalPlay Occupational Therapy

We love to play! Did you know children learn through play? Children's play ability impacts their relationships, thinking skills, emotional regulation, motor skills and sensory regulation. Extensive play assessments and intervention available to enable your child to develop independent and social play skills.

Sophie's Masters in Play Therapy has enabled her to develop a deep therapeutic understanding into children's emotional regulation and behavioural presentation. Children and those around them can learn more about the 'why' behind their child's emotions and behaviours.

Does your child have a difficult time with fine motor tasks like drawing or gross motor tasks like catching a ball? Fine and gross motor assessments available to enable individualised therapy intervention and suggestions for home and educational settings. 

Self care for children includes toileting, dressing, eating, cleaning teeth and much more! There may be many reasons why self care activities can be tricky for our little ones. Contact us now for assessment and strategies.

Sensory processing assessments and interventions are available to support you and your child in meeting their daily sensory needs within the home, community and educational settings.

Has your child's educator recommended seeing an occupational therapist prior to starting school? We can support skill development in attention, organisational skills, social fine motor and much more!

Is your child having a challenging time with handwriting? Our Handwriting Without Tears program uses a fun and engaging approach to teach proper letter formation and improve overall handwriting skills.
