Calm and Connected

💛 Mothers Education Retreat Mumma's... (you know who you are). We're excited to see you in 5 days for our June retreat!

🌟 Did you know we offer School Holiday Therapy Intensive Blocks>

💛 Our Therapy Intensive Session Blocks provide a focused burst of support, with 3-4 appointments over a two-week period, tailored towards one or two specific goals.

Intensive blocks may be a great fit for:
✅ Children working towards a specific goal
✅ Families who find term-time therapy overwhelming
✅ Rural and remote families visiting Perth
✅ Children waiting for ongoing therapy services
✅ Young people wanting focused support with regulation, emotional wellbeing, trauma recovery, or social participation
✅ Parents wanting support to better understand and connect with their child

Each intensive block includes:
📞 A pre-block planning call with your therapist
🎯 3-4 therapy sessions over two weeks
📝 A summary letter with recommendations and strategies to continue progress

School holidays can provide the space and flexibility for deeper learning, skill development, and connection without the demands of the school term.

📍 Held at our Piara Waters HQ
📧 If you'd like to learn more about whether an intensive block could suit your child or family, we'd love to chat.

Is Australia sucking the joy out of childhood? The first time Renae Powell waved her eldest child through the primary school gates she felt something was missing: play time.

✈️ 🍁 Wishing OT Hannah an amazing Canadian adventure over the next few months! We’ll look forward to hearing all about it when she’s back at the end of August!

💛 In the meantime, we’re verrrrrrry happy to welcome OT Abbey to the East Kimberley team, who will be covering Hannah’s caseload while she’s away and bringing additional EMDR and TRE skills to town!

Our resident bookworm, OT Evie, had a lot fun reading Luna Roo for National Simultaneous Storytime 2026! Thanks to Kununurra School & Community Library for having her! ⚽️📚

A recent client recommendation that we wanted to share 💛

📚 “Different, Not Less” by Chloé Hayden from
helped one of our clients feel truly seen and understood - and we can absolutely see why. A powerful and affirming read for neurodivergent people, families, and supports alike.
