Encourage OT is an occupational therapy and professional support practice founded by Nicole de la Perrelle, an experienced occupational therapist, mentor, and supervisor. The brand supports occupational therapists at every career stage, from new graduates and sole practitioners to experienced clinicians and team leaders. Its mentoring and supervision programmes help practitioners strengthen their skills, expand their knowledge, and build confidence while reducing the risk of burnout.

Encourage OT also provides consulting, training, and professional development for organisations seeking to improve clinical competence, team capability, and workplace wellbeing. A self-paced burnout prevention course offers practical strategies to prevent, manage, and recover from burnout. For clients, the practice delivers occupational therapy to adolescents and adults with neurological, neurodevelopmental, and physical conditions.

Services include functional capacity assessments, capacity building, rehabilitation interventions, and OT driver assessments, with support tailored to individual goals and daily living needs. Across its work, Encourage OT emphasises evidence-based practice, empathy, and a person-centred, neuro-affirming approach
