Our Service Portfolio
Pediatric Occupational Therapy & Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Support
Every child develops at their own pace. Through play-based occupational therapy, we help children build skills for everyday life, including sensory processing, emotional regulation, attention, school readiness, gross and fine motor coordination, play, and social participation. We also support daily routines such as feeding and picky eating, dressing, toileting, sleep, and transitions.
Our approach is tailored to each child’s strengths, interests, and needs, with practical strategies and caregiver coaching to support participation at home, school, and in the community.
We accept BC Autism Funding.
Motor Vehicle Injury Rehabilitation
Move forward after a motor vehicle accident. Our personalized, one-to-one occupational therapy helps you manage symptoms, rebuild your capacity for daily activities, and return to the roles that matter to you.
Based on your assessment and goals, we develop a rehabilitation plan, recommend adaptive equipment and home supports, assist with safe hospital discharge, address transportation needs, and support a gradual return to work. We also coordinate care with your healthcare team and ICBC adjuster, providing reports and clinical justification to advocate for funding for recommended treatment, equipment, and services.
ICBC direct billing is available for eligible services. Funding is subject to ICBC approval.
Fall Prevention & Home Safety
Feel safer and more confident at home. Our occupational therapy assessments identify fall risks, mobility challenges, and home safety concerns, with practical recommendations tailored to your needs and goals. We also provide wheelchair and seating assessments to support comfort, posture, and mobility.
We support fall prevention, bathroom safety, safe transfers, stair safety, and home accessibility through recommendations for equipment such as grab bars, shower chairs, and mobility aids, along with improvements to lighting, furniture placement, and daily routines.
We work with you, your family, and caregivers to help you maintain independence, age in place, and navigate your home with greater confidence.
Pain Management & Daily Living
Find ways to do more of what matters, even when pain persists. Our occupational therapy helps you understand how chronic pain and fatigue affect daily activities and develop practical strategies for activity pacing, energy conservation, body mechanics, positioning, and ergonomic adjustments.
We support personal care, cooking, household tasks, work, and leisure through adapted routines and equipment recommendations tailored to your needs. Together, we work toward greater comfort, independence, confidence, and participation in everyday life.
