ABOUT SELF SENSE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

At Self Sense we specialise in working with individuals of all ages with sensitive nervous systems. Our goal is to support and empower you or your child to participate fully in a life that is meaningful to you by fostering self-awareness, cultivating a sense of self, and promoting a sense of safety through a holistic approach that integrates senses, activities, environments, and relationships.

Our experienced clinicians understand the unique challenges faced by adults, adolescents, and children with sensitive nervous systems, from persistent pain to symptoms of trauma, anxiety and ADHD. Our work is based on the science that our brain and body systems work best when we feel safe, and that we sense safety through what we know, think and experience both within ourselves and in our physical and social environments.

Through personalised therapy sessions we provide you with the skills and support to create a nurturing and supportive environment where you can thrive. From sensory modulation techniques to activity-based interventions, we collaborate with you to enhance your well-being and promote independence.  We work with you to identify the type of person you want to be, the things that you want to do, and how to overcome the barriers that stop you from doing so.

Our approach is grounded in compassion, empathy, and evidence-based practices, ensuring that you receive the highest quality care possible.
