Making Connections Toowoomba is a multidisciplinary practice supporting neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults — and their caregivers — to build  confidence,  independence  and to help them  make connections.

  • Our Values

    We believe our clients and families deserve nothing but the best. We value:

    • Passion to make a positive difference to the lives of neurodivergent youth and their caregivers.

    • Respect for each participant’s uniqueness.

    • Commitment to helping our participants feels safe to be who they are.

    • Excellence in all that we do.

    • Warmth by genuinely caring about and enjoying the young people in our care.

    • Community by bringing neurodivergent youth and their caregivers together to find their tribe and make lasting connections.


  • Our Spaces

    We’ve designed our spaces to match the variety of supports we provide. Whether it’s more room to move in our ‘Big Kahuna room’ with close by access to a beautiful park, the cosy ‘Little Kahuna room’ with its gentle sensory lights and calm, contained feel, or the inviting ‘Hallway Haven room’ with therapeutic lounges and a quiet reading corner — each space offers a sense of comfort, safety, and belonging.

     

    Every room includes calm corners, sensory tools, and break areas so participants can regulate and connect at their own pace. Our clinic also offers wheelchair and pram access, free parking, and is just a short stroll from a park, council tennis courts, and local shops and cafés — perfect for families who’d like a little ‘me time’ while their young person enjoys their MCT time.


  • Intake Process

    At Making Connections Toowoomba, we know that every person is unique and that support should never be one size fits all. We take the time to understand your individual interests and support needs so we can ensure that our services, programs, and team are the right fit for you or your young person.


    Our Intake Process

    1. Submit an Expression of Interest


    2. Initial Contact

    We’ll contact you by email, or phone for a brief 5–15 minute chat to discuss suitability and next steps.


    3. Meet Us

    o For group programs, we’ll invite you to visit our space and meet the team.

    o For therapy services, we’ll arrange an initial consultation.


    PLEASE NOTE:

    At Making Connections Toowoomba, we aim to keep our fees fair and accessible, which means our team operates with a small amount of administrative support. 


    However, we can assure you, each Expression of Interest is carefully read and considered. If you don’t hear back immediately, it may simply mean we don’t currently have a suitable group or appointment available, or that our team is busy supporting participants in sessions.


    We appreciate your understanding and patience. If you’d like to check in on your enquiry, you’re always welcome to send us a quick email.
