Giving you back your independence
Functional Assessment
An OT Functional Assessment is all about helping you achieve your goals. The assessment works to determine your current level of functioning, what your strengths and weaknesses may be, how you manage on a day-to-day basis and to identify any challenges or gaps that may need to be addressed.
Aged Care Assessments
A home safety assessment of an individual who has a Aged Care package, or privately funded individual. This home assessment includes recommendations for assistive technology and minor home modifications..
AT Assessment
Assistive Technology (AT) assessment will review any equipment, modification or item that can improve your life, or/and keep you independent. The assessment will review your current need, and then we will discuss what options are available before submitting an application for the most appropriate and reasonable AT option.
Home & Living Assessment
A Home and Living Assessment will review your current living arrangements, and determine the best supports for your needs. Sometimes people need a modified home to live, or need supports within the home. Other times, people need to learn skills to manage their own home or a shared environment. The Home and Living Assessment will start this process to achieving your housing goals.
Ergonomic Assessment
An ergonomic assessment is an assessment of your workstation (in most instances, this is a desk). We review working postures and workstation set-up, to reduce discomfort and pain. This assessment can review your home and work based desks.
Work Capacity Assessments
A work capacity assessment, assesses your current skill set to understand the barriers of returning to current employment or assisting you with suggestions on new employment.

What Our Clients Say About Us
I have had the privilege of engaging Rachel as my clinical supervisor and it has been a positively transformative experience. I have found her to be professional yet approachable, knowledgeable around NDIS matters and committed to evidenced based practice. I highly recommend her as a supervisor!
‘As a local Support Coordinator I am always looking for knowledgeable, passionate and caring therapists and have been so lucky to have found Rachel from Independent Living Therapy! Not only is Rachel extremely skilled in the work that she does, she is also a lovely genuine person who goes above and beyond for her clients. In my experience, Rachel has been able to build a great rapport with many of my NDIS participants which has been invaluable! We have also achieved some amazing results in terms of increases to NDIS funding and having SIL funding approved with Rachels assistance and excellent report writing.’
If you are looking for a thoughtful, comprehensive, and brilliant OT you need look no further than Rachel, not only is Rachel very welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable she is also fantastic with children. My 3 children have all had reports with Rachel and we will definitely be back next year. I can not recommend Rachel high enough. Thank you for what you did for our family.
