About Us

Hey there!

Welcome to ND Collective, a paediatric allied health service located in Cairns, Far North Queensland and Albany, Western Australia. We offer face-to-face therapies, telehealth parenting supports, Therapy at Home programs, professional supervision and mentoring, and neuro-affirming streetwear. Our goal is to empower neurodivergent children and families by providing individualised and holistic therapeutic interventions. We’re all about ensuring a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone can reach their full potential.

As parents of neurodivergent children and identifying as neurodivergent themselves, our Directors Cath and Elise have a solid understanding of the demands required to navigate a “neuro-typical” world. From both a personal and professional perspective, they are passionate about child advocacy and the systems reforms required for equitable service delivery for ND kids. With their team of neuro-affirming superstars, they specialise in fun, play-based therapies that are tailored to meet your child’s needs that respect and embrace areas of interest.

We know that comfort matters, so we come to you—whether that’s at home, daycare, the playground or at school. Based in Cairns Queensland, and Albany Western Australia, our team offers a mix of holistic interventions to fit your child’s unique needs. We’re here to help your little one thrive and enjoy their journey. Here at ND Collective, we embrace neurodivergence and all its awesomeness!
