History of the Practice
The practice was started in 2013 in Mondeor, Johannesburg. Nisha Vythilingam Occupational Therapist, primarily saw children with developmental delays, autism, specific learning difficulties, ADHD and other behavioural disorders. The practice was also extended to doing home visits for terminally ill clients as well as clients needing assistance to reintegrate back into their home and community after receiving inpatient rehabilitation.

The practice was then closed from January 2016 to August 2019 due to Nisha relocating to the Eastern Cape. When relocating back to Johannesburg, she re-opened the practice in Bedfordveiw.

During the Covid-19 pandemic she progressed to doing sessions online and developing her skills to drive her passion towards creating more support and skill building groups for parents and teachers.

In January 2022 Nisha took on a post Public LSEN High School. The practice was subsequently closed at the end of 2023, whilst Nisha started to re-establish the OT department at the school.

Current:
The practice will be reopening in May 2025 at the Mediworx center in Winchester Hills.

Testimonials

 I have worked with Nisha very closely and her professional, caring input has played a big part in changing my life. Through her experience in using CBT and DBT techniques, we have made great breakthroughs. Her caring professionalism is highly useful for children as well as adults.

 Nisha was so knowledgeable, insightful and intuitive in the way she taught us and our son to negotiate his ADHD in the educational arena as well as at home. His performance was markedly increased in all parameters after he spent several months in therapy with Nisha.

 Nisha was my son's OT when he was just 6 years old in 2013. We found her approachable and very capable , with an amazing ability to make children comfortable in her therapy sessions. He was able to apply the things he learned from his OT sessions with Nisha, to his work at class. Will definitely recommend Nisha for OT for children.

 Nisha worked with my mom and family in 2015. She was a great support to my mom and the family. She's professional and cares for her patients. Her weekly visits made a difference to my mum's impairment. My mum looked forward to their sessions and the family was given information and techniques on how we can better assist my mum with her disability. Throughout the period when Nisha had sessions with my mom, she has consistently displayed: 1. Proffessionalism, 2. Patience and emotional support to the family 3. Skills and expertise. I would recommend her services anytime. She's great at her work.

 Hi Nisha, I think that your service was professional and excellent: -I was kept fully informed in terms of logistics and could plan accordingly -You arrived on time for the appointment -Your report was extremely comprehensive -You followed up post the visit to explain areas I did not fully understand -You went beyond the call of duty by offering to order the required aids online and to have them delivered. I would recommend you very highly to anyone requiring OT services. It was a pleasure dealing with you.
