Support for Individuals & Families
Whether you’re navigating sensory overload, supporting your child through big feelings, managing fatigue or burnout, or just trying to better understand your nervous system — we’re here to help.
At Gain OT, we provide sensory-informed, neurodiversity-affirming support grounded in the science of how the brain and body work together. Our services are designed to empower adults, parents, and carers with knowledge, tools, and personalised strategies, all without the pressure of ongoing therapy.
We don’t work directly with children. Instead, we work alongside the adults who care for them, because when you feel supported, understood, and confident, the ripple effect benefits everyone.
Our Services:
Sensory assessments that explain the “why” behind behaviours and emotional responses
Custom support packs with strategies and tools tailored to your needs
One-off consults to help you make decisions or plan for transitions
Downloadable resources you can use at home, in school meetings, or for personal insight
