Childrens Occupational Therapy
At Wildflower Kids Therapy, we’re all about helping kids feel comfortable, confident, and supported.
Using the power of play, our fun and engaging occupational therapy services help children build skills, discover their unique strengths and interests, and learn how to learn effectively.​​
Everything we do is grounded in a neurodiversity-affirming mindset, meeting kids where they’re at and working with families to build practical, meaningful strategies that fit real life.​
​​
It's not just about reaching goals. It's about helping kids feel good about who they are.
Based in Mudgeeraba, we see children from across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW, from Tweed, Robina, Burleigh, Varsity Lakes, Nerang, all the way to Yatala, either in clinic, at home, or out in the community.

Values
Neurodiversity Affirming
We strive to provide a neuro-affirming practice that respects differences in neurotypes including play preferences, sensory processing differences and personality traits. All experiences are equal and valid.
Strength-Focused
Our practice emphasises strengths-based practices to promote self-confidence and positive identity growth. No one likes doing things that they aren't good at over and over again!
Child & Interest Led
Our approach to therapy is child-led, which allows children to fully engage and feel pride when they share their special interests.
We want them to be excited about therapy!
“When a flower doesn’t bloom, you fix the environment in which it grows, not the flower.”
– Alexander Den Heijer
Our passionate team works together to create a safe, supportive space, celebrating each child's unique strengths through a neurodiversity-affirming lense.
