Dimitrios Mylonadis

Founder & Clinic Director

Dimitrios Mylonadis is one of the UK’s leading specialists in Ayres Sensory Integration® therapy for children. He is a HCPC-registered Occupational Therapist with over two decades of clinical experience, working exclusively with children and young people with neurodevelopmental differences.

 

Dimitrios trained in Occupational Therapy before undertaking extensive postgraduate study in Sensory Integration, completing Ayres SI® certification and going on to become a trainer and educator in the field.

 

He founded Hopscotch with a clear purpose: to create a clinic that could offer genuinely specialist paediatric therapy in one place, combining the disciplines of OT, SLT, and Sensory Integration under a single clinical roof.

Dimitrios' Training & Education

Dimitrios has been teaching Sensory Integration to occupational therapists across Europe for nearly twenty years. He has a longstanding relationship with continuing professional education in Greece, where he has trained cohorts of therapists in Ayres SI® theory and practice since the early 2000s. He is committed to raising the standard of SI practice internationally, and to ensuring that therapists working in this area have access to rigorous, evidence-based training.

Dimitrios' Clinical Approach

Dimitrios approaches every child with fresh eyes. He does not take part in pre-assessment calls or preliminary briefings, preferring to come to every assessment entirely uninfluenced by prior commentary — so that his clinical observations are wholly objective and his findings are grounded solely in what he sees in the room. Parents consistently describe his assessments as thorough, perceptive, and unlike any previous evaluation their child has had.
