History
Bright Minds Occupational Therapy began in Kalgoorlie in 2011 operating under the business name of ‘Hayley Storr - Occupational Therapy’.
In 2014 the business moved to Secret Harbour and slowly grew through word of mouth; and continued to service Kalgoorlie with a full time occupational therapist employed through school terms. In January 2019 the business base relocated back to Kalgoorlie where the team expanded to include increased Occupational Therapy and a Speech Pathology Caseload.
In 2020, due to Hayley’s (directors) personal and family commitments; all of the caseloads were handed over to larger partnering organisations; with Next Challenge in Perth taking on the Occupational Therapist position in Kwinana, Rockingham, Mandurah; and Full Circle Therapies Inc. taking on all of the Occupational Therapy and Speech Pathology employees and caseloads.
