• Develop, organise and undertake therapeutic interventions with clients and their families, where relevant
• Liaise and collaborate with agencies, schools, organisations, departments, participants and their families as required for the effective implementation of services
• Prepare or provide discipline-specific reports where required
• Involvement in identifying the most appropriate location or environment for the provision of services, i.e. home, school, clinic or community
