NAPA’s weekly therapy provides consistency, connection, and opportunities to build on progress over time. Regular appointments give your child the opportunity to practise and develop skills, work towards meaningful goals, and maintain momentum throughout the year.
Your child will generally see the same therapist each week, allowing them to build a familiar and trusting relationship while giving their therapist time to understand how they learn, what motivates them, and what matters most to them.
What this means for your child
Your child generally sees the same therapist each week, someone who gets to know how they learn, what motivates them, and what matters most to them.
Through regular, meaningful repetition.
Between intensive programs or throughout the year.
That support participation, independence, and everyday life.
With therapy goals and priorities evolving as their needs change.
With practical strategies for families and opportunities to collaborate with other members of your child’s team where appropriate.
Weekly appointments may include one or more of the following services:
Builds strength, balance, and gross motor skills such as sitting, standing, and walking.
Develops fine motor, sensory, and self-care skills that help children take part in everyday activities.
Supports speech, language, and social communication so children can express themselves and understand others.
Helps children build the oral motor skills and confidence they need for safe, enjoyable eating and drinking.
Therapy plans are individualised and may evolve as goals are met and new priorities emerge.
Depending on your child’s goals, weekly sessions may incorporate specialised approaches such as:
To support engagement, alignment, strength, communication, and functional outcomes, therapists may use:
Not every tool is used in every session. Therapists select what is most effective and meaningful for each child.
We understand that a weekly appointment isn’t always possible for every family. If you cannot commit to weekly therapy, speak with us, as children may be able to access more flexible drop-in therapy sessions, depending on availability. In-clinic assessments may be required first before determining suitability.
NAPA also offers telehealth options where this is clinically appropriate and can add value to your child’s therapy program. Talk to your local NAPA team about what options may work best for your family.
If you would like to enquire about weekly therapy, getting started is easy.
If you’re already attending NAPA and would like to discuss adding or changing weekly therapy, please speak directly with your local clinic team.
Goal setting is an important part of your child’s ongoing therapy at NAPA. For children attending regular weekly or drop-in therapy, your therapist will allocate dedicated non-face-to-face time approximately every six months to review progress, update goals, and plan the next stage of your child’s therapy program.
You and your child do not need to attend an additional appointment for this planning time. Your therapist will discuss your child’s progress and goals with you during regular sessions as the six-month review approaches, so therapy continues to reflect your child’s current needs, priorities, and goals as they grow and develop.
