What we do
An occupational therapist looks at how you actually manage day to day, then adapts the task, the tools, or the space so you can do it more safely and independently. The focus is practical and specific to your life: returning to work, getting through your morning, caring for your family, or living safely at home.
We start from what you need to do, not from a textbook list of exercises. Your occupational therapist assesses the real demands of your day, identifies what is getting in the way, and changes the task or the environment so it works for your body as it is now. Because the clinic is multidisciplinary, this sits naturally alongside physiotherapy, with one team coordinating your recovery rather than separate clinics pulling in different directions.
Is this you?
- An injury or condition is making everyday tasks at home or work hard or unsafe.
- You are recovering and need your home or routine adapted so you can manage on your own.
- You are navigating an ICBC or WorkSafeBC claim that turns on your daily function.
- You want to get back to the specific things your day requires, not a generic exercise sheet.
Your first visit
Most patients leave knowing exactly what is wrong, what is going to fix it, and roughly how long it should take.
A practical assessment
Your occupational therapist asks what your day actually requires and where it has become hard or unsafe, at home, at work, or both.
Finding the real barrier
They work out what is getting in the way, whether that is strength, movement, fatigue, or an environment that no longer fits.
A plan you can use
You leave with specific changes to the task, the tools, or the space, plus any retraining needed, all aimed at the things you need to get back to.
Coordinated with your recovery
If physiotherapy or other treatment would help, it is folded into one plan rather than sent to a separate clinic.
Common questions
What patients ask most before their first visit.
Have another question? Call (604) 281-3345- What does an occupational therapist do?
- An occupational therapist helps you return to the everyday activities an injury or condition has made difficult, by retraining the activity and adapting your tools or environment. Where a physiotherapist rebuilds the body, an occupational therapist rebuilds your ability to do your day.
- Is occupational therapy covered by ICBC or WorkSafeBC?
- Yes. Occupational therapy is a recognized part of ICBC and WorkSafeBC recovery where daily function or return to work is affected, and we bill both directly. Bring your claim number to the first visit.
- Do you do home assessments?
- When your recovery depends on your home environment, an assessment of how you manage there is part of the work. Your occupational therapist will tell you at the first visit whether that applies to your situation.
- Do I need a referral?
- No. You can book occupational therapy directly. Some extended health plans ask for a referral before they reimburse, so check your own policy.
- Do you direct-bill?
- Yes, to ICBC, WorkSafeBC, and most extended health plans that include occupational therapy. You pay only the portion your plan does not cover.
