Katey Mickle is an Occupational Therapist (OT) working in Queanbeyan, NSW. You can find her at Level 1, Unit 2, 114 Crawford St, Queanbeyan NSW 2620. Her work is all about helping people manage everyday life more easily, safely, and with more confidence.
Katey supports people who are finding daily living tasks harder than they used to be. This might include getting through routines at home, staying independent with personal activities, or building back skills after illness or injury. At times, it can also be about making life fit better around a person’s needs, not the other way around.
In appointments, Katey does practical assessments of daily living activities. She looks at what’s getting in the way, what still works well, and what support would help most. From there, she helps put together a personalized therapy plan. The goal is usually clear and doable, like improving independence at home, using the right strategies, or reducing stress during everyday tasks.
Katey also helps with adaptive equipment and gives clear recommendations. If a home setup needs changes, she can suggest home modifications that make daily tasks safer and simpler. She may also provide training for independent living skills, so the person can practise what they need in a calm, step-by-step way. It’s not just about the equipment or the plan. It’s about using the plan in real life, day after day.
Katey’s training supports the way she works with clients: focused on abilities, routines, and everyday goals. She uses what works and keeps things plain and practical, especially when life feels a bit unpredictable.
