Jessica Ryan,
Paediatric Occupational Therapist
Hi, I’m Jess. I graduated with a bachelor’s in occupational therapy from Australian Catholic University (ACU) in 2018. I established OT for Kids after establishing a special interest in working with autistic children, children with attention deficit hyperactive disorder, developmental coordination disorder, oppositional defiance disorder, learning challenges, anxiety and intellectual impairment. I have experience in working with children across multiple settings, including the home, school, kindergarten and private clinic setting.
I established OT for Kids because I am passionate about all children having equal opportunities. I aim to support children and families to participate meaningfully in their home and community. My approach is to provide therapy that is fun, strength based and tailored to each family’s priorities and lifestyle.
I am excited to be able to be a part of your family’s therapy journey and support you with your goal areas.
Please reach out to find out if OT for Kids is right for you and your child.
Celebrating Individuality
OT for Kids understands that every child is an individual, with individual strengths and skills. OT for Kids celebrates your child’s individuality and works towards growing their ability to engage in what is most meaningful and necessary to them.
Building On Strengths
Therapy builds upon your strengths and assets so that you can develop your own set of resources to feel confident in continuing to promote your child’s development.
