Therapy and Beyond was founded in 2021 by Occupational Therapist Simone Sant. Throughout her career Simone quickly discovered her passion for working with children and people with disabilities. Therapy and Beyond was created to provide specialised services for children with complex needs in Townsville and surrounding areas.
We believe in creating opportunities that allow our clients to live their most fulfilling lives. What began as a mobile service soon evolved into a clinic-based service, enabling us to maximise our capacity to support the Townsville community.
Our vision is to create a space where our clients (little stars) can be their true selves while learning to navigate daily activities and the world around them in the most positive and functional way. We aim to empower families through support and education, helping their children achieve their goals in all areas of life.
We are proud of the supportive, collaborative culture we’ve built for both families and our team. Our clinic is a place where therapists can grow, feel valued, and make a real difference. We feel privileged to be part of our little stars’ journeys and can’t wait to be part of yours too!
