FAQs
What does an Occupational Therapist do?
Occupational Therapists (OTs) do so much more than people often realise! We’re creative problem-solvers who think outside the box to help individuals overcome challenges and live fulfilling lives.
Whether it’s regaining independence, adapting environments, or reaching meaningful goals, OTs are all about making life work better for you. We focus on enabling independence, maximising safety, and enhancing quality of life by recommending tailored strategies, assistive equipment, or modifications to make everyday tasks easier and more achievable.
But our work doesn’t stop there. We also support carers, providing practical tools, techniques, and guidance to help loved ones stay engaged and active in their daily lives.
What can occupational therapy help with?
Occupational therapy can make a big difference in helping people tackle life’s challenges and thrive in their daily routines. Here are just some of the ways OTs can support you:
- Building Everyday Skills: From dressing and cooking to managing finances, we help you master the skills that make daily life easier.
- Adapting Environments: Whether it’s modifying your home, workplace, or school, we create spaces that work better for you.
- Recommending Assistive Technology: From simple tools to advanced equipment, we’ll find the right solutions to enhance your independence and safety.
- Supporting Life Transitions: Whether you’re returning to work, moving into a new home, or starting school, we’ll guide you through the changes with practical strategies and support.
At its core, occupational therapy is about helping you do the things that matter most to you, in ways that feel safe, comfortable, and achievable.
What is the difference between occupational therapy and physiotherapy?
While both occupational therapy (OT) and physiotherapy (PT) aim to improve quality of life, they approach it from different angles:
- Occupational Therapy: OTs help people participate in the activities that matter most to them, whether it’s getting dressed, cooking a meal, returning to work, or enjoying hobbies. We take a holistic approach, considering the person, their environment, and their unique goals to develop practical solutions that enable independence and confidence.
- Physiotherapy: PTs focus on improving movement, physical function, and mobility. They often use exercises, hands-on techniques, and rehabilitation programs to address physical impairments and help people recover from injuries or manage conditions that affect their movement.
