About SPOT Allied Health
NDIS Mobile Therapy Experts with Heart – Supporting Sydney’s Diverse Families
SPOT Allied Health was founded by two passionate therapists — Vanessa, an experienced speech pathologist, and Ivan, a seasoned occupational therapist — both Hong Kong-born professionals trained and accredited in Australia.
Having worked extensively with families from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, Vanessa and Ivan saw a gap in the system: many people in need of therapy were missing out on quality support simply because of language barriers, lack of access, or cultural misunderstanding. That’s why SPOT was created — to bring therapy to the people who need it most, in a way that’s accessible, inclusive, and personal.
At SPOT, we don’t just provide therapy — we build relationships.
We believe in creating a workplace that feels like home. Our team is more than colleagues — we are the SPOT Family. No matter your role, language, or background, everyone is treated with respect, warmth, and shared purpose.
