Our Approach
Mental Health has always been our passion. We are an Occupational therapy service with extensive experience, compassion and care for whatever we do. We believe in empowering individuals to maximize their independence in their daily life regardless of their struggles and challenges.
Developing and maintaining a secure and strong Occupational Identity, with meaningful occupational roles, self-empowerment, and resilience is our priority. Our approach follows the strong Principles of the Model of Human Occupation-MOHO as well as the Recovery Model.
Occupational challenges are opportunities to maximize and support the individual to learn new skills or re-discover lost ones. These same challenges are faced by the individual's family/carers/peers/physical and social environment. We aim in supporting and providing bespoke recommendations offering a holistic approach to the individual and their context according to their needs and preferences.
