If you are an allied health professional who is passionate about working with children and teenagers then My Therapy Space is for you.  We provide a flexible, supportive, multi disciplinary team experience.  We are driven to provide a service for families that is family centred, and driven by families.  Staff are offered a flexible working environment, with regular supervision/mentoring and professional development. If this resonates with you, then please contact us to discuss further.

What Makes My Therapy Space Different?

Since opening a Speech Pathology private practice in 2001, directors Trish and Lisa have dreamt about forming the perfect multi disciplinary team. In 2018 that dream came true and My Therapy Space was born! Seven of our staff members had worked for between 5 & 20 years at a government organisation together. Our team is a wonderful combination of fabulous people working closely as a multi disciplinary team that supports children with all types of presenting difficulties, as well as teenagers and young adults with disabilities. We provide Speech Pathology, Occupational Therapy, Dietitian and Psychology services.

The directors live and breathe our company and work alongside all the therapists daily on the ground. There is no corporate structure here! Only people who truly care for their staff and the families we support. They work hard to recruit exactly the right people that will fit with our company culture of being fun, innovative and caring. They are available any time for a check in and all staff members are very generous in sharing their knowledge. We don’t send our therapists out on visits all day long which can be isolating. We work from light and airy, purpose built office spaces. At Burleigh- we have 11 spacious therapy rooms, including a large gym and a group room with full kitchen facilities. Did we mention we are only an 8 minute drive from beautiful Burleigh beach?! A fabulous way to begin or end your day. Our Hope Island office has six beautiful therapy rooms attached to the Harmony Early Learning childcare centre. 

Our team is passionate about family centred practice and work closely together with families in a holistic way. We want to be the place where they can go to feel welcome and well supported. We truly care about each family we work with and we sponsor events for our families such as wellness retreats for the mums, art therapy for the siblings and Golf days for the dads.

You will never be bored at My Therapy Space! We don’t just provide individual therapy sessions – we run a wide variety of Speech and Occupational therapy group programs including yoga, positivity, prep readiness, lego, dance and movement, scavenger hunts and “youtubers and gamers gang”. We love innovation and new ideas and are always open to trying new and exciting things! Therapists have a lot of input into the programs we run and are welcome to include their passions into therapy.
