Weekly appointments are available for Physiotherapy, DMI, Occupational Therapy, NeuroSuit (min. 2 hours), Feeding and speech therapy. Please note that we do not offer fortnightly appointments but if you are looking for a more flexible schedule please let us know as we may be able to schedule drop-in sessions for your child.
If you are interested in registering for weekly appointments, you will first have to complete the NAPA Patient Intake Information which can be found here. If you are unsure whether NAPA is the right fit for you or would like to find out more about our services then you can schedule a free Discovery session with our therapists where we will tour you around the clinic and meet your child to get an understanding of their needs. You can request a free Discovery session by completing this form.
Once you have completed your patient intake, please let us know what weekly appointments you are seeking and your best available times by completing this form.
If you have any questions about our weekly therapy program, please feel free to call your local clinic and we can chat through what may be available.
For those children who attend regular weekly or drop-in therapy sessions at NAPA, your therapist will allocate an additional session of non-face-to-face time to plan, review and set the goals automatically every 6 months. This time will be charged at our current hourly rate.
These sessions will not require you or your child to attend an appointment, but your therapist will discuss with you the goal planning within their regular sessions as each 6-month mark rolls around. Goal setting is an ongoing part of your child’s therapy program. You may opt for the goal planning time to be allocated if you need to cancel an appointment due to any illness or other cancellation needs. An invoice will be forwarded to you once the goals are completed. These costs are fully claimable via your child’s NDIS funding, or via Medicare or Private Health Insurance for a rebate.
All weekly therapy sessions will be structured and billed as 70-minute sessions, which include:
Weekly NAPA appointments are ongoing therapy sessions designed to support steady progress over time. These appointments allow children to build skills consistently while integrating therapy into their regular routines.

Your therapy team will track progress toward established goals and communicate changes over time. Progress may look different for every child and can include:
We value open communication and encourage families to share observations, questions, and priorities along the way.
Families are an important part of the therapy process. Depending on the child and session goals, families may:
Our goal is to support progress not just in the clinic, but in everyday life.
Weekly therapy focuses on steady, ongoing progress and integration into daily routines. It can be a stand-alone service or complement intensive therapy by helping children maintain and build on gains made during intensives.
Both models are equally valued at NAPA and are selected based on what best supports each child and family.
