Miss Aleisha Ellis is an Occupational Therapist (OT) based in Artarmon, NSW. You’ll find her practice at 5 George Place, Artarmon NSW 2064.
Occupational therapy is all about helping people take part in everyday life. That can mean making daily routines easier, building skills again after an injury, or finding ways to do things safely when pain or limited movement gets in the way.
Miss Ellis focuses on assessment of daily living skills. She looks at how someone manages common tasks like getting dressed, preparing meals, bathing, using mobility aids, and getting through the day with less stress. In many cases, it’s the small things that make the biggest difference.
After the initial checks, she works with clients to develop personalised therapy plans. These plans are practical and tailored to what matters most at home, at work, or at school. Goals are set in a way that feels manageable, not overwhelming.
At times, adaptive equipment can help a lot. Miss Ellis provides assistance with adaptive equipment selection, so clients can choose items that suit their needs and fit their space and routines. The aim is to support independence, reduce strain, and help people feel more confident using what they’ve been given.
Injury prevention is another key part of the work. Miss Ellis offers education on injury prevention techniques, including simple ways to move and pace activities. This can be useful for people returning to activity, or anyone who wants to lower their risk of flare-ups.
She often works with people who need support with everyday tasks after changes in health, or when daily life feels harder than it used to. This may include adults and children, depending on the needs and goals discussed during appointments.
Her approach is calm and down to earth. She takes time to understand what’s going on, then focuses on steps that can be used right away. Over time, these small steps add up, and daily routines tend to feel more achievable.
Miss Ellis is based in Artarmon and welcomes clients from the local area. Appointments are guided by what each person needs, with a focus on clear goals and steady progress in everyday life.
