At Therapy4Life, we believe in empowering our team to bring their full selves to work—combining clinical excellence with genuine connection. If you’re ready to shape the future of therapy alongside a team that celebrates growth, wellbeing, and innovation, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and help us create something extraordinary—together.

About Us

Therapy4life provides Occupational Therapy Services, Therapy Assistants, and Equine-Assisted Programs for individuals of all ages, from children to adults. Based in Melbourne, we support children, adolescents, and adults—to enhance their access, functionality, development, independence, and overall health and well-being.

We believe that engagement is key to creating fulfilling and meaningful therapy experiences. Our Mordialloc clinic features vibrant, interactive sensory rooms, focusing on sensory modulation and gross motor activities. With the help of our interactive projection system, we ensure dynamic and engaging therapy sessions.

For nature-based therapy, our private sensory spaces in Somerville provide a serene environment for therapeutic activities like gardening, water play, and a giant swing. We incorporate natural play tools, a messy play area, and friendly animals, including charming miniature goats, guinea pigs, chickens, sheep, horses and ponies, to make each session unique and enriching.

Beyond clinic-based services, we also provide mobile therapy at clients’ homes, schools, and kindergartens. Our outreach programs allow us to work across Kingston, Bayside, and the Peninsula, offering therapists a balanced mix of clinic and community-based sessions.
