PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Deepening practice,
together.
TherapySPOT offers a small suite of professional development experiences for Allied Health practitioners — grounded in the same relational values that guide our clinical work. These are spaces for real dialogue, honest reflection, and the kind of learning that stays with you.
UPCOMING WORKSHOP
At this time there are no workshops planned.
But we are in the process of designing a new format of workshops, and as soon as that is competed, we will be announcing the next workshops on this page and through other channels!
If you would like to be kept informed about this workshop and future professional development events from TherapySPOT, please register your interest below. This is separate from booking through WAOTA - use the link above to secure your place.

01 / Seminar
In-House Recurring Workshops
We bring professional development directly to your organisation. In-house seminars are shaped around the specific challenges, questions, and populations your team serves. This is not a generic curriculum delivered in a new room.
In the weeks before any engagement, we spend time understanding your context: The presenting needs of your clients, the experience levels within your team, and where practitioners feel least equipped. The seminar itself reflects that conversation.
Organisations that have hosted in-house seminars include multidisciplinary early childhood teams, school-based support staff, and NDIS service providers across the Perth metropolitan area.

02 / Supervision
Clinical Supervision
Individual · Group · Regular or Intensive
Offered by Kerry Wallace, supervision at TherapySPOT draws on four decades of paediatric clinical experience across South Africa and Australia including advanced training in DIR/Floortime, Sensory Integration, and psychodynamic approaches.
The aim is not to provide answers, but to help you think more clearly about the ones you already have. We work through live cases, examine the assumptions behind your clinical reasoning, and explore what the therapeutic relationship itself is telling you.
Supervision is available to Occupational Therapists and other Allied Health practitioners working with children and families, particularly those navigating complex presentations where developmental and emotional factors are intertwined.
