Autism Support at Allied Health — Across NSW
Allied Health in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Allied Health offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning and participation in activities. Allied Health's occupational therapy services address sensory processing challenges through tailored interventions designed to help children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement. Our therapists use evidence-informed strategies including sensory integration activities such as swinging and jumping on trampolines to help children develop better body awareness and coordination. We also incorporate weighted equipment like weighted vests or lap pads to provide calming input, and structured fine-motor activities using textured materials to build tolerance and skill development. Allied Health works with families to understand each child's unique sensory profile and creates practical strategies for home and school environments. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, it effectively supports the sensory and functional challenges many autistic children experience. Families accessing NDIS funding (2025-26) may be able to direct their plan towards these services, though registration status should be confirmed when planning your child's support.

About autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental difference that shapes how children process information, communicate, and respond to their sensory environment. In Australia, autism is identified across a wide range of ages, and many families first speak with a GP or paediatrician about referrals for assessment after noticing differences in play, communication, sensory responses, or daily routines.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy help my child with autism?
Occupational therapy supports many children with autism by addressing sensory processing, motor skills, and daily living activities. Allied Health's therapists work with each child's individual needs. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism. If you're seeking diagnosis, your GP can refer you to appropriate specialists. OT complements other supports your child may receive.
How does sensory processing therapy work?
Sensory processing therapy helps children respond more comfortably to everyday sensations. Therapists use activities like swinging, weighted equipment, and textured play to help children regulate their nervous system. Allied Health tailors these interventions to your child's specific sensory preferences and challenges, making them enjoyable while building skills.
Can we use NDIS funding for Allied Health services?
Many families use NDIS funding for occupational therapy services. However, Allied Health's NDIS registration status should be confirmed directly with the clinic before planning your child's support. Contact them to discuss your funding options and how their services align with your child's NDIS plan goals.
