Occupational Therapist Adelaide
Connect Allied Health
Occupational Therapy That Starts With You
At Connect Allied Health, occupational therapy begins with getting to know you, your goals, your environment, and what independence looks like in your day-to-day life. Our Adelaide-based occupational therapists work across clinic, home, school and aged care settings, tailoring every session around the outcomes that matter most to you.
Why Adelaide Families Choose Connect Allied Health
Our paediatric occupational therapists are passionate about working with children and are skilled to target the following areas:
- Genuinely individualised care: Every support plan is built around your individual goals and preferences, not a one-size-fits-all program.
- Flexible, convenient locations: Sessions can take place in our Norwood, Modbury or Berri clinics, or at your home, school, early learning centre or aged care facility.
- A connected, multi-disciplinary team: Our OTs work alongside speech pathologists, physiotherapists and other allied health professionals for a genuinely collaborative approach.
- Care, respect and dignity: Every participant is treated as an individual, with regular check-ins and feedback shaping how their support evolves.
Whether you’re supporting an adult regaining independence after an injury, managing a chronic condition, or exploring assistive technology and home modifications, our team works with you to build a plan that actually fits your life.
What to Expect From an Occupational Therapy Assessment
Your first session is about understanding your world, your home, your routines, and the everyday tasks you want to do more easily or safely. From there, your occupational therapist works with you (and your family or support network, where relevant) to set clear, achievable goals and build a plan around them. This might include home visits, mobility support, or guidance for stroke recovery and rehabilitation.
Funding Your Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy through Connect Allied Health can be accessed under an NDIS plan (plan-managed, self-managed or agency-managed), a Home Care Package, or privately. Our team can help you understand what pathway suits your situation and get you started without the guesswork.

An occupational therapist helps you build the skills, strategies and equipment needed to do the everyday tasks that matter to you, from personal care and mobility to work, school and community participation, whatever independence looks like for you.
It’s worth speaking to an OT if you’re finding everyday tasks harder than they used to be, recovering from an injury or illness, managing a disability, or supporting a family member whose independence has changed. An initial chat with our team can help you work out if OT is the right fit.
Physiotherapy focuses on movement, strength and physical recovery, while occupational therapy focuses on helping you actually do the everyday tasks and activities that matter to you, often the two work closely together as part of the same care plan.
Your OT will spend time understanding your home, routines and goals, then work with you to build a tailored plan. Assessments can happen in one of our clinics, at home, or in another setting that suits you.
