about us

We believe people thrive when their whole constellation — their family, supports, and community — is nurtured and empowered alongside them.

Who We Are

Constellation Therapies is a warm, professional allied health practice supporting children, adults, and older adults across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria.

We provide personalised, evidence-based supports through a multidisciplinary team, including psychology, speech therapy, occupational therapy, counselling and play therapy. Appointments are available in-clinic, via mobile visits (home, school, daycare, aged care), and through telehealth.

We support a wide range of needs, including:

  • developmental delay, learning differences, autism and ADHD

  • emotional regulation challenges, anxiety, and stress

  • trauma and complex life experiences

  • communication and swallowing support

  • functional capacity, independence, and daily living skills

  • neurological and age-related changes impacting communication, mobility, or participation.

Our Holistic Approach

At the heart of our work is practical, relationship-based therapy that supports real life.

We work collaboratively with families, caregivers, educators, support workers, and other professionals, building the skills and confidence that carry over into everyday routines at home, school, work, and in the community.

Our approach is strengths-based, neuro-affirming, and tailored to the individual’s goals, environment, and support needs.


NDIS, Private & Aged Care Pathways

We support:

  • children and teenagers

  • adult NDIS participants

  • private adult clients
