Barefoot Therapists is a renowned brand offering therapy services to children on the Mornington Peninsula in Melbourne, VIC. With a dedicated team of Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, a Dietitian, and Equine & Animal-Assisted Therapists, they provide a comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to therapy. The aim is to support children in increasing their independence in everyday activities and improving communication and social skills.

Their Occupational Therapists assess and analyze barriers that may be physical, emotional, social, or sensory, while the Speech Pathologists focus on communication and swallowing disorders. The Dietitian collaborates with the team to assess and plan appropriate nutrition for children and families. Additionally, their Equine & Animal-Assisted Therapy sessions integrate therapy goals with equine care and handling.

Barefoot Therapists take pride in creating a child-safe and trauma-aware environment, embracing a family-focused and neurodiversity affirming practice. Their sessions combine effective clinical therapy with a non-clinical feel, using engaging activities in different settings to motivate and support the children. Whether it's at their indoor center, gardens, farm, in nature, or the community, they tailor programs to meet each child's specific needs.

You can find them conveniently located at 1/16 Henry Wilson Drive, Rosebud, and also at Gadara Farm in Boneo. For more information or to book an appointment, visit their website or contact them directly
