More independence in everyday gestures.
State-qualified occupational therapist for children, adults and older people — at home, at school and at work.
Starting from what matters to you
Getting dressed, writing, cooking, moving around, working, playing: when a difficulty gets in the way of these everyday gestures, we look together for concrete solutions, rooted in your own environment.
Assess
The person's abilities, difficulties and daily habits.
Rehabilitate
Movement, motor skills, attention and organisation, through activity, with the aim of the greatest possible independence in daily life.
Adapt
Assistive equipment, the home, school or the workplace.
Advise
Family, carers and partners — schools, doctors, disability services.
Maud Legrand, Occupational Therapist
A state-qualified occupational therapist since 2023, I have built my experience in neurology, orthopaedics and with children presenting neurodevelopmental conditions — in rehabilitation centres as well as in private practice, with people of all ages.
I opened this practice in Fos-sur-Mer to support each person in developing, recovering or maintaining their independence. Every course of treatment starts from your own needs and daily habits, never from an off-the-shelf protocol.

Occupational therapy sessions in private practice are generally not reimbursed by the French health service. Other funding routes may nevertheless be available depending on your situation: support from the departmental disability services (MDPH), funding through an early intervention pathway (PCO), or reimbursement by some private health insurers. Do get in touch with these organisations to find out what applies to you.
Yes, a medical referral is required. It can be written by your GP, your paediatrician or the specialist following the person. It sets out the medical context and makes it easier to liaise with the other professionals involved.
The tools are chosen according to age and reason for referral: the BHK for handwriting, the Rey figure and the bells test for visuospatial function and attention, the NEPSY battery in child neuropsychology, the Purdue Pegboard for dexterity, the Jamar dynamometer for grip strength, and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure to set goals with you. Every assessment leads to a written report that can be shared with the other professionals involved.
The usual rhythm is one 45-minute session per week, or every two weeks depending on need. The overall length depends on the goals set after the assessment: some courses come down to a few sessions of advice and adaptation, others continue over several months with regular reviews.
Yes, whenever it is useful. Observing someone in their real environment — home, classroom, workplace — allows for far more accurate recommendations. Visits cover Fos-sur-Mer and the surrounding area.
Tuesday to Friday 8am – 5pm
Assessment slots can also be opened on Mondays when needed.
Payment at the end of each session, by bank transfer, cheque or cash — card payments are not accepted. Funding and financial support may be available: see the frequently asked questions.
