The Steps
1
Contact us
Reach out to us using the contact details provided and let us know how we can help. After you have contacted Blossom Rural, a Case History form and Service Agreement will be sent to you, via email.
2
Initial Consultation
A clinician will hold an Initial Consultation with the child's parent/caregiver. This will provide us the opportunity to discuss your concerns in depth and ensure we are taking the most appropriate pathway for your child.
During this session, an Initial Planning Document will be created for your child, to provide you an overview of the discussion held and some information regarding the assessments planned.
3
Assessment
If required, your clinician will begin the relevant assessments with your child. If you require a detailed Assessment Report, this can be written on completion of assessment. Assessment Reports include the findings of the assessment, goals for intervention and recommendations for your child's school and home.

Therapy
Therapy is great fun! We use evidence-based intervention approaches to work on achieving your child’s individualised goals, determined from their assessment.
Our clinicians also use a parent coaching approach, to work alongside families and provide evidence-based strategies to implement in the household.
