Frequently Asked Questions
What ages do you treat?
All ages! From baby to older adult. All ages require sleep and chronic sleep deprivation is never “normal” or “brave” at any age.
What if I am getting 8 hours of sleep every night and still tired every day?
Quantity is not the only factor to consider when assessing sleep. The depth and quality of your sleep is also important. There may be something disrupting your ability to sleep which could be biological or environmental. This requires an in-depth assessment.
I do not live in Johannesburg, how can I utilize your services?
Through the booking page you can select a virtual consult if needed. All you need is a stable internet connection and you will receive a link for a Microsoft Teams meeting for the date and time you have booked.
Are you a “sleep trainer” for babies?
No. I am a health professional with a special interest in sleep health. I screen for sleep disorders in babies and provide support to parents who are, themselves, sleep deprived.
I am trained to provide intervention for babies who are not sleeping well, but focus on routine, environment and teaching self-soothing.
Will my medical aid cover this type of therapy?
Sleep OT services are charged at medical aid rates for occupational therapy. Invoices need to be paid immediately following the session and you will be able to claim from your provider thereafter. Your intervention program may or may not be covered under your specific medical scheme. Please contact me if you need to discuss this further.
Do you do home visits?
Yes, I like to incorporate a home visit into my assessment or at some point during intervention where possible. This allows me to ensure environmental factors are fully considered and addressed as needed. It also facilitates a convenient opportunity for a family-centred approach.
