Holistic paediatric occupational therapy for kids on the Sunshine Coast.

Welcome to Little Waves Therapy

I started this space with one simple goal—to support kids and their families in a way that feels gentle, practical, and respectful of who they are.


As a mum myself, I know how important it is to feel heard and to have support that actually works in real life. That’s why everything we do here is guided by a neuro-affirming approach—focusing on understanding, supporting, and celebrating children just as they are, rather than trying to “fix” them.


Sessions are built around play, movement, and connection, with strategies developed together so they fit your family’s everyday routines.


At Little Waves Therapy, quirks are celebrated, strengths come first, and parents’ voices are always valued. My role is to walk alongside you—through the calm days and the stormy ones—so you and your child feel supported every step of the way.

Paediatric Occupational Therapy

Little Waves Therapy provides occupational therapy for children aged 2 to 12, supporting them to build everyday skills like playing, learning, dressing, and managing emotions. Sessions are delivered one-on-one in familiar settings—home, kindy, or school—where children feel most comfortable. Support is tailored to each child and may include developing fine motor skills, sensory processing, self-care, and social-emotional abilities.

Parent Coaching Session

Support is also offered for parents, with practical tools to build calm daily routines, support emotional regulation, and strengthen co-regulation. The focus is on simple, family-friendly strategies that work in real life and honour each child’s unique needs.


Sessions can be face-to-face or over telehealth.

Sensory Profile

A short-term block of 3–5 sessions is available to explore your child’s sensory profile and how it may be impacting their daily life. These sessions include informal assessment, observations, and practical strategies to support regulation, attention, and participation at home, school, or in the community. Parents are also supported to better understand their own sensory preferences, which can be an important part of co-regulation and building smoother daily routines.

Nature-Based Occupational Therapy

These sessions take therapy outdoors—on the beach, in the bush, or local parks—where children can move, explore, and learn through play in a natural setting. Nature-based OT supports regulation, sensory processing, motor skills, confidence, and connection. Sessions are child-led and designed to meet individual goals in a calming, spacious environment that encourages curiosity and builds resilience.
