Caris Bailey is an Occupational Therapist (OT) based in Osborne Park, WA. Her practice is at Suites 3-4, 14 Main Street, Osborne Park WA 6017. Caris helps people build everyday skills that make life easier and more manageable at home, work, and in daily routines.
In many cases, the focus is on daily living. That can mean looking at things like dressing, washing, cooking tasks, and getting through the small steps that most people don’t even think about. Caris also supports clients with fine motor skills, so hand and finger work feels less awkward and more reliable.
Caris works with people who may be dealing with changes to their movement, coordination, strength, or day-to-day function. This can include adults and children who need help after an injury, or anyone who finds everyday tasks are getting harder over time. At times, goals are about building confidence too. It’s not just about doing the task, it’s about doing it in a way that fits the person’s life.
Her sessions often include an assessment of daily living skills. From there, she helps create a plan that’s practical and realistic. This might include customised home exercise programs, designed to match what you can do now and what you want to work towards next. The aim is steady progress, not quick fixes.
Caris also helps with recommendations for adaptive equipment. Sometimes it’s simple things like tools that make grip or handling easier, or small adjustments that reduce strain. Other times, it’s about setting up tasks differently so they’re less stressful and safer.
Fine motor skills training is a key part of care for many clients. That can involve targeted work on hand control, coordination, and skill practice for everyday activities. Caris keeps it grounded and hands-on, with clear steps clients can use between appointments.
Over time, Caris looks at what’s working and what isn’t, and adjusts the plan as needs change. She understands that progress can be slow, and that everyone’s situation is different. If you’re looking for an OT who can focus on everyday independence and practical support, Caris Bailey is a good option in the Osborne Park area.
