About — Mini Marvels Therapy

At Mini Marvels Therapy, we believe that therapy is beyond process but rather sits in the realms of magic, possibility and curiosity. We are a practice dedicated to innovation, learning and growth. We live to bring joy and ease to our kids and families we work with through creative and collaborative therapy.

We seek to learn about the brain/body connection to gain a better understanding of our clients and their magical quirks to open up their world and give them more. MORE movement, function, purpose, opportunity and access.

We service children of ALL abilities.

We service children and families with NDIS, ECEI and private funding.

We have experience with:

Cerebral Palsy and other neurodevelopmental conditions,
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD),
Attention deficit disorder (ADD),
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),
Global Developmental Delay (GDD),
Syndromes such as Kabuki Syndrome, Smith Magenis Syndrome and more.

Our approach enables us to treat what we see rather than a recipe model based on a diagnosis.

We are all different and unique and should be treated as such.
