You will work with both NDIS and private participants, and you'll be supported by our team of Occupational Therapists. We believe that hands‐on experience, paired with the right guidance, is the key to becoming a well-rounded and effective therapist.

You will be part of a multidisciplinary team, collaborating with Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists and other allied health professionals to deliver integrated, evidence based care. Our clinics are in Ipswich and Springfield Lakes.
