Miss Angelique Carreira

Occupational Therapist

“We are a registered private practice offering occupational therapy services to children and adults in Johannesburg. We cater to clients with both physical and psychological difficulties and make use of Hippotherapy as a treatment modality where applicable. We also offer home based therapy services.”

About Me

We support children and adults in Johannesburg to overcome physical and psychological difficulties, helping you build skills for daily life. Our occupational therapy focuses on practical, real-world strategies. For many, this includes engaging Hippotherapy, which uses gentle movement to enhance strength and confidence. We also offer home-based therapy, ensuring support reaches you directly. Clients appreciate our flexible approach, designed to help you thrive and participate fully in your everyday activities.

Approach

With a focus on everyday skills, sessions move in short, practical steps that build strength, confidence and routine. I see clients in Douglasdale, at home or online, offering therapy in English and Afrikaans so families can practise where life actually happens. Sessions combine hands-on activities, gentle movement work and simple coaching for caregivers, with clear small goals reviewed each visit and tailored adjustments between appointments. This way of working suits people who want usable strategies they can apply every day.
