Autism Support at AwareHub — Across NSW
AwareHub in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services AwareHub offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily activities, learning, and social participation. AwareHub's sensory processing support helps children develop strategies to manage sensory input and build confidence in everyday situations. Through tailored interventions, the clinic works with each child's unique sensory profile. Examples of activities at AwareHub include using sensory swings and weighted equipment to help children regulate their nervous system, creating calm spaces with controlled lighting and sound, and practising fine-motor activities that build hand strength whilst providing calming sensory feedback. The occupational therapists also help families understand their child's sensory needs and suggest practical modifications for home and school environments. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing structures apply), which can cover occupational therapy support for eligible participants. AwareHub works with families to understand their funding options, though NDIS registration status should be confirmed directly with the clinic. Early intervention and consistent sensory strategies can support children in participating more fully in school, play, and family life.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism or sensory processing differences. However, AwareHub's OTs can assess how sensory processing affects your child's daily functioning and development. If you're seeking a diagnosis, you'll need to consult with a paediatrician or developmental specialist. AwareHub can work alongside diagnostic professionals to support your child's needs.
How does sensory processing support help my autistic child at school?
Sensory strategies help children manage classroom environments, which can be overwhelming due to noise, lighting, and social demands. AwareHub's occupational therapists develop individualised strategies—such as movement breaks, fidget tools, or noise-reducing techniques—that help your child focus and participate. The clinic can also liaise with schools to suggest environmental adjustments and strategies that support learning.
Does AwareHub accept NDIS funding?
AwareHub may support NDIS-funded services, but registration status should be confirmed directly with the clinic. If your child has an NDIS plan, discuss funding options with AwareHub when you contact them. They can advise on how occupational therapy services may be covered under 2025-26 NDIS pricing arrangements and help you understand your options.
