Small steps lead to big changes.
At Soft Steps OT, we believe that therapy shouldn't feel like a chore. We use a person-centred, family-oriented approach to co-design goals that fit into your real life, not just a clinical setting. Whether you are navigating the NDIS for the first time or looking for a fresh perspective on long-term goals, we provide the steady, evidence-based support you need to move forward with confidence.
Supporting Growth for Children & Teens
I provide gentle, evidence-based occupational therapy, specialising in Functional Capacity Assessments, sensory processing support, and developmental guidance to help you or your child thrive.
Functional Capacity Assessments
Comprehensive, evidence-based reports designed to support NDIS plan reviews. I provide a clear picture of functional needs to help secure the right level of funding and support for the future.
Sensory Processing & Regulation
Practical strategies to help navigate sensory overwhelm and emotional regulation. We work together to understand your child's unique sensory profile and create calming environments at home and school.
Skill Building & Development
Goal-directed therapy to help children and teens reach their milestones. From fine motor skills to self-care and social confidence, we break big challenges into small, achievable steps.
Meet Ethan
I am a passionate APHRA registered Occupational Therapist with a background in supporting NDIS participants across the lifespan. My experience ranges from early intervention to adult capacity building, with a special interest in working with children to develop emotional regulation, sensory processing, and building practical daily living skills.
I believe in a gentle, family-oriented approach - working with you to co-design goals that actually make sense for your life. Whether we are navigating complex functional reports or simply finding new ways to engage in everyday life, my goal is to provide clear, calm guidance to help you or your child thrive.
Let’s take the next step together.
