Kindred Occupational Therapy - Individual

Mainly working with Children aged between 1-12, Kindred's Occupational Therapy is rooted in neurodiversity-affirming practice, celebrating each person's unique way of being without seeking to change them to fit neurotypical expectations.

Individual therapy is offered flexibly - at home, school, kindergarten, the Warburton Wellspring or via Telehealth.

As of July 2026, waitlist times are around 6 months.

Kindred Transform

Kindred Transform is all about re-jigging the aspects, spaces and areas of ones life that are getting in the way and are feeling a bit unloved. Through activating Kindred Transform, Eddy will help individuals over several weeks map out their goals, re-align to their values, de-clutter the home, decorate your beloved spaces so they reflect your magical personality, assist with getting into supportive routines, teach you how to provide yourself with yummy meals, and so on.
