About Us

Octavia Therapies provides Occupational Therapy services to children, adolescents, and young adults in our beautiful Bunya clinic and around the north Brisbane area. Our family-centred approach provides wholistic care in helping clients to improve their functional daily living skills, achieve greater independence, and build stronger connections to their communities.

We provide a mobile service to where it matters most – in the home, in the school/ kindergarten, or out in the community. We love to work closely with parents, caregivers, educators, and other specialists to support goals across environments.
