Allied Health Assistants
The challenge of living with mental illness can make it difficult for people to live independently or engage in activities that are meaningful and enjoyable. For many people experiencing mental illness, can make even the simplest tasks challenging. Many mental health conditions occur along with physical, sensory, or cognitive issues, all of which can have a significant impact on quality of life.
We believe that participation in everyday activities is essential for quality mental health and well-being. Our therapists and assistants are dedicated to supporting you through maximising your mental health, physical function, emotional health, safety, and wellbeing for long-term, positive change to achieve the everyday meaningful activities that you engage in.
This can be achieved through several methods such as:
