Occupational therapy for adults in Liverpool and Merseyside
Home and community assessment and rehabilitation when everyday activities, confidence or independence have become more difficult.
Start with what matters to you
You do not need to know which type of occupational therapy you need. We begin with what has changed, what is difficult now and what you want to be able to do.
The service is for adults aged 18 and over. Families and professional referrers can also make an initial enquiry.
Who this can help
Examples of reasons people contact us include:
- After neurological illness or injury: preparing meals, remembering appointments or organising your day has become harder.
- Fatigue and return to work: you want support to manage energy, adapt routines or plan a return to your working role.
- Independence at home and in the community: washing, dressing, household tasks or getting out have become more difficult.
Assessment
An assessment explores your daily routines, strengths, difficulties and environment. It may include discussion, observation of activities and agreed measures, with family or professional input where appropriate authority is in place.
You receive practical recommendations and the written summary or report agreed in your quotation. These may address routines, cognition, fatigue, equipment, the home environment, community access or return to work.
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation turns agreed goals into practical work in everyday settings. Sessions may involve practising activities, adapting routines, developing strategies and reviewing what is helping.
One-hour rehabilitation sessions are available. Assessment length is agreed separately according to the work required. Progress and the next steps are reviewed together; outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

Clinical OT FAQs
Do I need a GP or professional referral?
No. Adults and families can contact ProActive Therapy directly. Every enquiry is considered individually to establish whether the service is appropriate.
Is the free 20-minute call an assessment?
No. It is an introductory discussion about your needs, location and possible next steps. Any assessment, fees and arrangements are agreed separately.
Can a family member contribute to the assessment?
Family or professional input can be included where consent or appropriate authority is in place. Please mention any communication or accessibility needs when arranging the appointment.
What if I need to cancel or rearrange?
Please give at least 48 hours’ notice and contact ProActive Therapy as early as possible. A late-cancellation or non-attendance charge may apply where it is fair and set out in your agreed terms.
