Adaptability Therapy offers a range of group programs throughout the year. The groups are developed and run by our multi-disciplinary team of therapists. Depending on the group, that could include Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists and Physiotherapists. Some groups are run during school holidays, and others run throughout term time. Groups are open to everyone, including current clients of Adaptability Therapy, those on our waitlist and children and young people who are not accessing other services with us. A therapist reviews group participants prior to the group starting to ensure the group is appropriate and will be beneficial for the participant. Groups are open to private and NDIS clients, and run at our Coorparoo and Graceville clinic locations. Parking is available on-site at both locations.
