How We Support
At Glenwood Therapy and Support Services, we offer personalised, tailored support and therapy based on assisting individuals to achieve their goals and dreams.
We take a collaborative approach to therapy and work closely with each individual (and their support networks) to assess their needs and identify areas of focus. Our goal is to help individuals enhance their skills and abilities in daily life through the implementation of customised programs.
At Glenwood Therapy and Support Services, we offer a wide range of therapy and support services in the following areas:
Areas of Support
Our tailored daily living and skills development programs aim to empower participants to increase their independence and improve their skills in targeted areas from meal preparation, self care, money handling/budgeting through to developing and improving daily routines.
Life Skills & Independence
Our programs focus on enhancing social and community participation skills, enabling participants to engage in various community, employment and social activities with confidence. We are also able to work with individuals to increase their social skills and can assist individuals to create their own ‘Circle of Support’.
Social Participation
Our therapy programs include behaviour support and intervention to assist with emotional regulation strategies, improved relationships, and overall wellbeing, and may including using eco-therapy (nature-based) if appropriate.
Behaviour Support and Therapeutic Programs
Our team assists individuals to manage life transitions effectively, focusing on skills development for school and employment. We provide personalized planning, skill development and coaching support to empower individuals to make informed decisions and achieve greater control. We understand the impact a disability can have on daily functioning, and the difficulties that can occur moving into the next life stage and provide support to families, caregivers and individuals with a disability to navigate this, and to provide advocacy if required.
Life Stage Transitions
We offer communication support, including augmentative and alternative communication methods, to help participants express themselves effectively and to enhance their ability to make their own decisions and choices, and to speak up for themselves.
