About Us
OAK Family Therapy grew from a need for a family centred therapeutic experience that focuses on enriching children’s lives - and their parents. We provide paediatric occupational therapy and play therapy intervention through our specialised framework. Our clinic space is purpose built and includes a sensory integration gym, play room and therapeutic clinic rooms.
Our mission is to foster a love of learning in your one of a kind child, where connection nurtures capability.
“When kids feel calm and connected they can thrive.”
— Hanna, Founder of OAK Family Therapy
