Having compassionate therapy assistants within our OKAY Therapy team enables efficient use of therapy funding and provides families additional support to implement therapy strategies and recommendations.
We do this by developing personalised strategies, supporting relationships and modifying environments to promote their unique well-being and quality of life.
Therapy assistants follow a tailored and individualised therapy plan set out by our experienced therapists. These plans are regularly reviewed,and you can rest assured we do not treat these as “Set and forget plans”.
The therapist works closely with the therapy assistant to ensure that the client’s goals and approaches are regularly reviewed and graded based on the needs, capacity, and skill progression of the person at the time.
Therapy assistant programs are a cost-effective alternative to direct therapy and are an integral part of our OKAY Therapy approach to increase access and consistency in a cost-effective way for families.
We recognise the power of shared experiences and offer group therapy sessions that foster community and connection. In these supportive and inclusive environments, you can engage with others with similar experiences, share insights, and learn from one another.
We believe therapy and support should be accessible to every family. If individual therapy isn’t a viable option or the right fit, our group therapies provide a welcoming path to explore and understand your authentic self.
