Laura Ann Stasinowsky is an Occupational Therapist (OT) based in Taringa, QLD. She works out of Suite 308 at Westside Private Hospital, 32 Morrow Street, Taringa QLD 4068.
Occupational therapy is about helping people do the everyday things that matter. That can include getting back to routines at home, school, or work, and finding ways to stay independent even when something feels harder than it used to. In many cases, the goal is not just to “fix” a problem, but to support daily life in a practical way.
Laura looks at how a person’s daily living activities are going, then checks what is getting in the way. This can mean assessing tasks like dressing, eating, personal care, and other everyday routines. She also pays attention to the small steps inside these tasks, because changes that seem tiny can make a big difference to how someone manages at home.
Fine motor skills are also a focus. If hand control, grip, or finger movement is affected, everyday tasks can become slow or frustrating. Laura helps people build more comfort and control, with strategies that can be used in real life, not just during therapy.
Adaptive equipment can help too. At times, it’s about learning how to use tools that make daily tasks easier, safer, or less tiring. Laura provides recommendations for adaptive equipment and gives training on how to use it properly, so it fits the person’s needs and the way they live.
Treatment is usually shaped around a personalised treatment plan. That means the plan considers what the person wants to achieve, what they can manage right now, and what support might help next. Over time, the plan can be adjusted as skills improve or situations change.
Laura’s work is grounded and hands-on. Sessions are practical, focused on daily function, and aimed at helping people feel more confident in what they do day to day. If you’re dealing with difficulties around daily living or hand and fine motor skills, this OT service can offer clear steps and support along the way.
