Miss Sarah Mersal is an Occupational Therapist (OT) based in Gregory Hills, NSW. Her practice is at 51-59 Rodeo Road, Gregory Hills NSW 2557.
As an OT, Sarah helps people work through the day-to-day things that can feel harder after an injury, an illness, or a change in health. That might be getting back to routines like dressing, washing, cooking, or doing the small tasks that make up daily living.
Sarah focuses on practical support. In many cases, the goal is to help someone stay independent for longer, or to build up confidence with everyday activities again. At times, that can also mean adjusting how things are done, so the person can cope with pain, fatigue, or limited movement in a safer way.
One of the key areas of work is assessment of daily living activities. This looks at what’s going well, what’s taking more effort, and what gets in the way. From there, Sarah can recommend assistive devices if they’d help. These are the kinds of tools and supports that make tasks more manageable at home or in the community.
Sarah also helps with personalised rehabilitation plans. That means support isn’t just one-off. The plan is built around what the person needs, what matters in their real life, and what they want to work on over time. It can include practical steps for improving skills, building safer routines, and making sure progress sticks.
Work and day-to-day habits matter too. Sarah provides training in ergonomic work practices, which can be useful if someone’s job involves repetitive movements, lifting, typing, or long periods at a desk. Learning better work habits can reduce strain and make it easier to keep going with less stress on the body.
Overall, the work is grounded and practical. It’s about understanding daily life, then choosing the next best steps—whether that’s changing a routine, using an assistive device, or learning a safer way to do work and movement. If you’re looking for OT support in the Gregory Hills area, Sarah’s clinic is set up to help with these everyday goals.
