At Helen Walker Occupational Therapy our philosophy is to assist you (or your family member/client) to do, be and become your truest self. And to foster a sense of belonging. Both as part of our community and within your own community and occupations (meaningful activities that we want or need to do). Our friendly team look forward to hearing from you with any enquiries. Please note that clients requiring minor home modifications can be supported by Helen Walker Occupational Therapy. However, complex home modifications are not currently an area of service delivery and Helen Walker Occupational Therapy works closely alongside local OT service providers for these needs as required. Helen Walker Occupational Therapy does not compile Positive Behaviour Support Plans and is not currently registered for delivery of NDIS supports under the 'Improved Relationships' category.

OTs Tash and Jess were busy recently adding to their skills for working collaboratively with Teens (and Tweens!)

Working with this client group can require a really nuanced set of skills - to develop therapeutic relationships, to support participation, develop a sense of ownership and self-direction.

Throw in hormones and brains that are SUPER-wired for belonging and acceptance, then plans A, B, C, (and D etc!) are generally needed and pulled from the OT tool-box! Meeting the client where they are at becomes extra important, alongside supporting clients and families/caregivers through changes.

Thanks to Rebecca Lockyer at Little TheraPeas for the awesome training. And to Helen for the 'afternoon crash' donut delivery ๐Ÿฅฏ๐Ÿฉ๐Ÿคค.

Reminder today
"I can do Hard things"

3 months ago my gym of 13 years closed down unexpectedly.

I have been a regular exerciser and gym-goer since age 15 years.

I was STILL scared to start somewhere new.

To tell the story of my body all over again.

Still expecting judgement for the bendy body accommodations, the pains, the heart rate, the modifications after modifications.

Today was the day my BRAVE was louder than my fear.

I started a new (big and scary!) group fitness program, eek.

I was met with kindness, support, no judgement, happiness to have me, compassion and flexibility.

Your reminder:
"I can be scared AND I can be brave".

One doesn't stop the other existing. Without fear their is no brave.

With special thanks for the lovely lady who saw I was new and deliberately reached out to help and make me feel at ease ๐Ÿค—.

There is kindness and support out there when we are able to be vulnerable ๐ŸŒŸ

Happy Birthday to our fabulous Senior Social Worker, Bec!

Today weโ€™re celebrating one of the very special people who brings so much heart, passion and personality to the Helen Walker Occupational Therapy team - our wonderful Senior Social Worker Bec!

Bec has spent many years supporting individuals and families through the often complicated worlds of disability and health and her passion for advocacy, inclusion and ensuring people feel heard, valued and supported shines through in everything she does.

She is a fierce advocate for her clients, a wonderful support to families and carers, and someone who genuinely believes that every person deserves the opportunity to belong, participate and be a valued member of their community.

But those of us lucky enough to work alongside Bec also know there is SO much more to her than her incredible professional knowledge. She brings warmth, laughter, enormous heart and plenty of personality to our team, and life at HWOT simply wouldnโ€™t be the same without her!

Please help us absolutely shower Bec with birthday love today and wish her the happiest of birthdays!

Happy Birthday, Bec! We hope you are thoroughly spoiled and reminded just how loved and appreciated you are by your HWOT family. ๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’•

A very special welcome back to our beautiful newlywed Tash!

Our wonderful OT Tash is officially back with us after marrying her lovely Rhys, and we couldnโ€™t let her return without celebrating the new Mr & Mrs Preston!

Our Director Helen and Senior Social Worker Bec were lucky enough to be there to share in Tash and Rhysโ€™ beautiful wedding day, and by all accounts it was every bit as gorgeous and special as these photos suggest. And seriously, how beautiful did our Tash look?!

We are so incredibly happy for them both and wish Mr & Mrs Preston a lifetime filled with love, laughter, happiness and many wonderful adventures together.

We know many of our clients and families have missed Tash while sheโ€™s been away, so please help us welcome Mrs Preston back to Helen Walker Occupational Therapy and leave a little congratulations for the newlyweds in the comments below.

Welcome back, Tash, and HUGE congratulations to you and Rhys! ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿฅ‚๐Ÿ’

๐ŸŒˆ 'be amazing today'๐ŸŒˆ

As a business owner and an Occupational Therapist it is soooo important that I regularly come back to myself and do 'the work' - to continue to grow as a human, as an OT, as a manager, as a colleague, as a business owner, as a partner, as a friend, as a daughter, as a sister ๐ŸŒŸ.

Coming back to my own values to check-in that I am living in alignment with these is such an integral part of who I am, how I work with clients and my team, who I am in my life overall. It is essential for me to set goals, plans, develop, thrive and review my progress towards living the life where I am the me-ist me โœจ๏ธ.

There is so much work that goes on behind the scenes as OTs, other than just clinically preparing for sessions. We are often drawn to this profession as an identity, a career choice and a way of being.

Thanks Marina Perry for another fantastic business and life coaching session, bringing in all of the spirituality that is such a vital part of OT, our purpose, our meaning and our wholeness ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™.

Squeezed in some sneaky sea air too ๐ŸŒŠ.

Allllll of the different locations for annual reviews and supervision today!

Sometimes these are best done at a computer, sometimes over a coffee, sometimes over a walk and talk, sometimes switching it up midway through.

We are all sensory beings, needing different formats, different styles, and different deliveries on different days ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒˆ
