Alexis Stewart, Occupational Therapist
I am a neurological occupational therapist working with adults across Perth. I see clients at a Fremantle clinic and visit people at home.
I support adults living with changes in thinking, movement, sensation and fatigue after neurological conditions.
FND is my main area of focus. Therapy centres on the everyday activities your symptoms affect, from managing fatigue and pain to sensory strategies for nervous system regulation. There is a full guide to how I work with FND.
With brain injury and concussion, I work on managing fatigue and pacing the day so activity feels more sustainable. Cognitive and visual-perceptual retraining supports concentration, memory and planning. When returning to work or study is the goal, we build toward it at a manageable pace.
My focus after stroke is upper limb therapy and motor skill rehabilitation, worked into the daily activities you want to get back to. I also look at practical changes to the home that make those activities easier to manage. Where a return to driving is a goal, it can be assessed and supported.
After GBS, motor skill rehabilitation works on coordination and strength for the tasks that make up your day. Fatigue and pain management help you spread effort sensibly rather than push through it. A return to work, study or driving can be planned for when the time is right.
For neurodegenerative conditions, therapy focuses on keeping daily life manageable and meaningful. I look at changes to the home environment, strategies for fatigue and pain, and support for the physical and cognitive demands of everyday tasks. The aim is to keep you engaged in the roles and activities that matter to you.
My ADHD work is practical and centred on daily function. I support routines, planning and follow-through, alongside sensory strategies for regulation and focus through the day. This can extend to managing study, work and the demands of a busy household.
Therapy is built around the goals that matter most to each person. This can include:
I am a neurological occupational therapist based in Western Australia. I work with adults living with changes in thinking, movement, sensation and fatigue after neurological conditions, with a special interest in supporting people with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)
I am passionate about helping people rebuild everyday routines, roles and identities after life-changing events. My approach is calm, collaborative and practical and I take the time to understand what matters most to each person and tailor therapy so it feels relevant and achievable.
