Occupational Therapy That Starts With Your Life — Not Your Diagnosis.
We come to you — at home, in the community, at work, or wherever therapy makes sense for your life.
Welcome to On Purpose Therapy
At On Purpose Therapy, we believe you are the expert in your own life. Our role is to listen, understand what matters to you and work alongside you to make everyday life more accessible, meaningful and manageable.
Occupational Therapy should fit around your life. Not the other way around.
We don't believe you need to be “fixed”.
Disability isn't something that exists solely within a person.
Sometimes the biggest barriers to doing the things you want to do are the environment around you, the expectations placed on you, the systems you're navigating, the equipment you have access to — or the way other people understand you.
That's where Occupational Therapy can help.
That's why we work from a social model of disability.
We look at the person, their environment and the things that surround them to understand what's getting in the way.
Our job isn't to make you fit the world. It's to work with you to make the world work better for you.
Maybe you're here because you want to...
- Make everyday things easier.
- Feel safer and more comfortable at home or in the community.
- Explore where and how you want to live.
- Build positive relationships and social connections.
- Find interests, hobbies and things that make life meaningful.
- Help the people around you understand what you need.
- Build confidence and skills for everyday life.
- Get out into your community and participate in the things that matter to you.
- Reconnect with important people in your life.
- Build a support team that understands you and works well together.
We're there for 1% of your life
What happens in the other 99% matters too.
Your OT might spend an hour with you.
But your life happens for the other 167 hours of the week.
So we don't want therapy to only work while we're there.
We want to build skills, strategies, environments and support systems that continue to work when we're not in the room.
