Independent Steps is an Occupational Therapy service located in Lilydale, Australia. We are dedicated to providing exceptional support to children and adolescents aged 0-18 in our community. Our goal is to empower and encourage families, ensuring they feel supported throughout their journey.

At Independent Steps, we believe in a collaborative approach to therapy. We work closely with all the essential individuals in your child's life, including family, teachers, and other healthcare professionals. By working together, we can provide the best possible service for your child.

Melissa, our experienced Occupational Therapist, has 10 years of experience in pediatric Occupational Therapy. She has worked in various settings, including early intervention, schools, and private practice. Melissa's expertise also extends to public mental health, where she has worked with adults. When she's not working, Melissa enjoys spending time with her loved ones, including her Swiss Shepherd, Jasper, and her partner.

To ensure personalized care for your child, we conduct assessments to determine their current skills and strengths. Through standardized and non-standardized assessments, as well as clinical observations, we can collaboratively establish future goals and plans. Therapy sessions are 50 minutes long, and the frequency of sessions will be determined based on your child's treatment plan. Our aim is to develop independence in your child, enabling them to succeed in all aspects of their lives.
