Autism Support at Action Kids Therapy — Across NSW

Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily activities, learning, and social participation. Action Kids Therapy supports children with autism by addressing sensory processing challenges through tailored occupational therapy. Our therapists work with children to help them better understand and respond to sensory input in their environment. For example, we might use sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children who seek deep pressure input, or provide fidget tools and movement breaks for those who need additional sensory stimulation. Action Kids Therapy also incorporates fine-motor activities—such as threading, cutting, and drawing exercises—to build skills needed for writing and self-care tasks. Additionally, we use visual schedules and structured routines to help children navigate transitions and understand expectations. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing arrangements), which can cover occupational therapy support. While an occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, we work collaboratively with your child's medical team to address the functional challenges that often accompany autism, helping your child participate more confidently in school, home, and community activities.
