About Occupational Therapy
Embracing Uniqueness in Care
At Posity, we believe every individual’s journey is as unique as their fingerprint. Our Occupational Therapy (OT) Services are sculpted to embrace this individuality, ensuring that no matter where you find yourself in Australia’s vast landscapes, our support is just a heartbeat away. Our commitment transcends the traditional confines of therapy. We’re dedicated not just to providing care, but to fostering a culture of partnership, continuous learning, and empowering our clients with the tools and knowledge necessary to weave therapeutic practices into the tapestry of their daily lives.
Our Legacy of Innovation and Accessibility
Eleven years ago, Posity was conceived from a visionary dream: to bring positivity and empowerment to everyone in all walks of life. We identified early on that the accessibility of Occupational Therapy should not be hindered by geographical barriers. Telehealth services are not merely an addition to our offerings but a cornerstone of our mission to reach the unreachable. As a result, today Posity stands not just as a provider of therapy but as a vital lifeline, connecting countless individuals to the care and support that fuels their independence and growth.
At the heart of Posity is our family-centred approach, a philosophy that views effective therapy as an inclusive collaboration of the individual, their loved ones, and their broader community. Our array of services reflects the spectrum of our clients’ needs. From the colourful imagination of children exploring developmental frontiers to the determined spirit of adults reclaiming their independence, our support systems are crafted to nurture and elevate.
For us, Occupational Therapy is not just a profession; it’s a passion-driven odyssey that has the power to unlock hidden potentials, to foster self-reliance, and to celebrate the diverse capabilities that define our humanity. Whether it’s parents striving to understand their child’s unique developmental needs, support coordinators architecting collaborative care paths, or individuals with disabilities yearning for a richer life, Posity stands as a beacon of hope and steadfast support to help all our clients to reach their highest potential.
