Occupational Therapy for ADHD in Adelaide

Supportive, strengths-focused occupational therapy for children with ADHD - building regulation, focus and confidence through play, at home, at school, or via telehealth.

Children with ADHD are often bright, creative and full of energy - and they can also find focus, routines and big emotions genuinely hard. At We Play OT, Diana Quinones offers play-based occupational therapy that works with a child's energy and interests, not against them.

Looking beyond the labels

Diana moves past quick labels like "won't sit still" or "not trying" to understand what's really going on for a child. From there, she builds practical, playful strategies that help children with ADHD feel more regulated, capable and confident.

How OT can support children with ADHD

  • Self-regulation and managing impulsivity
  • Attention, focus and task completion
  • Emotional regulation and frustration tolerance
  • Daily routines, organisation and independence
  • Motor skills and handwriting
  • Confidence and positive participation at home and school

Support in every setting

Strategies work best when they're consistent. Diana can support your child through home visits, school visits, or telehealth - so the same goals are reinforced wherever your child is.

Partnering with parents and carers

Diana works closely with families, sharing practical tools you can use every day. The goal is a calmer, more confident child - and a family that feels supported and understood.
