Our story
From humble beginnings, our founders, Matt and Judy Scott built My Therapy Crew from the ground (or should we say garage) up. During the COVID-19 pandemic, they assembled a united team of experienced allied health professionals dedicated to delivering powerful outcomes for our clients.
A year later, they moved to their clinic in Upper Mount Gravatt and expanded with a strong crew of experienced Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, Physiotherapists, Allied Health Assistants, and helpful Admin staff behind them.
My Therapy Crew takes a holistic care approach and is committed to professional and efficient service. Our friendly team delivers quality results in the first-class care we provide to our valued families.
