Occupational Therapy can help children who are struggling with everyday activities related to movement, coordination, communication, sensory processing, emotional regulation, or independence. If your child is having difficulty with things like:

Sitting still or paying attention

Fine motor skills like holding a pencil, using scissors, or tying shoelaces

Gross motor skills like walking, balancing, or coordination

Managing big emotions, anxiety, or frustration

Sensory sensitivities or avoiding certain textures, sounds, or movements

Participating in play or social interaction

Feeding themselves or managing basic self-care tasks

…it might be worth exploring how OT can help.

Occupational Therapy is also often recommended for children with specific diagnoses such as:

Cerebral Palsy (CP)

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Developmental Delays

Down Syndrome

Intellectual Disability

Although you don’t need a diagnosis to benefit from therapy. If you’ve noticed that your child’s challenges are affecting their confidence, participation, or development, an occupational therapy assessment can offer insight—and support tailored to their unique needs.

My therapy fees are set according to a private practice tariff and are not based on medical aid rates. However, they are structured in a way that allows for reimbursement by most medical aids, depending on your specific plan. These fees reflect the quality of care I provide—drawing on years of clinical experience and the use of well-researched, evidence-based therapy approaches. I aim to offer effective, compassionate therapy that is tailored to your child’s unique needs, while remaining as accessible as possible to families.

Please contact Kyla for her current fees.

This is a cash-based practice, which means that payment is made directly to the practice rather than through medical aid. Invoices are issued at the end of each month, and clients are responsible for submitting these invoices to their medical aid for reimbursement.

The frequency of therapy is tailored to each child's individual needs, goals, and stage of development. After an initial assessment, I will recommend a plan that best supports your child’s growth—typically, once a week is ideal. Weekly sessions provide the consistency needed to build skills, support neuroplasticity (the brain’s ability to form new connections), and maintain momentum between sessions. That said, I understand that every family’s circumstances are unique. I strive to work collaboratively with you to find a schedule that is both beneficial for your child and manageable for your family. Whether that means adjusting the frequency or exploring alternative options, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My approach is grounded in the belief that therapy should be holistic, meaningful, and joyful. I work not only on the physical aspects of development, but also on the emotional and sensory needs of each child—supporting the whole child rather than focusing on isolated challenges. What makes this practice unique is the integration of nature-based, movement-rich therapies like hippotherapy and aqua therapy, alongside therapeutic play. These approaches are engaging, research-supported, and often feel more like play than work—which helps children participate more willingly and make lasting progress. I also work closely with families, recognizing that each child’s therapy journey is deeply personal. My therapy sessions are guided by evidence-based practices, but always tailored to suit your child’s unique strengths, challenges, and personality.
