How Telehealth OT Works
Telehealth occupational therapy runs through secure video sessions, so you connect with your therapist from home or wherever suits. Working in your own environment actually helps, because it gives us a clear picture of the everyday tasks and routines that matter to you. Sessions stay practical and goal-focused, and the same approach carries through assessments and reporting. All you need is a device with a camera and an internet connection, and we’ll guide you through the rest

Get Started

Not sure where to start?
Occupational therapy supports people of all ages with the everyday skills that build independence. For children that might be fine motor, sensory or self-care skills and keeping up at school; for adults it might be daily living tasks, returning to work or study, or equipment to support independence. If any of that sounds familiar, a telehealth OT assessment is a good place to start
Our occupational therapists provide flexible, accessible support by secure telehealth, so you can access personalised care no matter where you are in Australia. With our therapy and support teams working closely together, you can combine occupational therapy, speech pathology and/or positive behaviour support to suit your needs
As a registered NDIS occupational therapy provider, all our occupational therapists are accredited and able to support you whatever your plan type or personal need

Frequently Asked Questions

What is telehealth occupational therapy?
Telehealth occupational therapy is OT support delivered remotely via video call, covering everyday skills, home safety, sensory needs, and other goals. It follows the same clinical process as an in-person session, just delivered from wherever suits you, whether that’s home, school, or work.
Does telehealth OT work as well as in-person?
Telehealth is a genuine delivery option. Many everyday skills, strategies and assessments can be worked through effectively over video, and for participants outside a major centre, it often means faster access without the wait or travel. Your therapist will let you know if a particular goal is better suited to an in-person or hybrid approach.
Can OT reports and assessments be done by telehealth?
Many of our reports and assessments, including Initial Assessments and Functional Capacity Assessments, can be completed via telehealth. Some, such as those involving a physical review of your home, may need an in-person or on-site component. Your therapist will confirm the right approach for your specific report.
Do you offer telehealth OT for both children and adults?
Yes. We support participants of all ages via telehealth, from young children through to adults, matching you with a therapist experienced in your area of need.
What do I need for a telehealth session?
Just a device with a camera and a stable internet connection, whether that’s a laptop, tablet or smartphone. We’ll send you a secure video link ahead of your session, and your therapist will guide you through anything else needed on the day.
How does NDIS funding work for OT?
Occupational therapy, including telehealth sessions, is commonly funded under NDIS plans, often within Capacity Building supports. The exact funding depends on your plan and goals, and your support coordinator or planner can help confirm what’s available to you.
Do I need a referral to access occupational therapy?
No formal referral is needed. You can submit your own referral directly through our online referral page, and our team will take it from there.
