Autism Support at BillyLids Therapy – Newmarket — Newmarket, QLD

BillyLids Therapy – Newmarket supports children with autism spectrum disorder through targeted occupational therapy addressing two key areas: sensory processing and fine motor skills. Children on the autism spectrum often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their comfort, focus, and participation in daily activities. Our sensory processing support includes interventions such as weighted blanket trials, sensory diet activities using swings and balance equipment, and structured exposure to different textures and sounds in a controlled environment. Fine motor difficulties may impact writing, self-care, and play skills. BillyLids Therapy – Newmarket offers fine motor interventions including scissor skills practice, threading and bead work, and hand-strengthening activities tailored to each child's interests and developmental level. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can support occupational therapy goals. Our therapists work collaboratively with families to identify priorities and create meaningful strategies for home and school. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, but we can assess how sensory and motor differences affect your child's everyday functioning and wellbeing.
