Services Brighter Futures Allied Health offers for autism
Brighter Futures Allied Health provides occupational therapy support tailored to children with autism spectrum disorder across NSW. Our therapists work with autistic children to develop skills in everyday activities, manage sensory sensitivities, and build confidence in social and self-care routines. We use evidence-informed strategies such as sensory regulation activities (including weighted equipment and movement breaks), visual supports and structured schedules to aid transitions and communication, and fine-motor skill development through play-based activities like threading, cutting, and handwriting practice. Each child's program is individualised based on their strengths and goals. Many families access Brighter Futures Allied Health through NDIS funding, which can cover occupational therapy services under the 2025-26 funding arrangements. We work collaboratively with families, schools, and other professionals to support children's participation in daily routines at home, school, and in the community. Please note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism; however, we provide valuable support for children already diagnosed by their medical team.

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 autistic child with sensory sensitivities?
Yes. Occupational therapists can help children manage sensory sensitivities through strategies like sensory breaks, environmental modifications, and activities that build tolerance. Brighter Futures Allied Health uses tailored approaches such as weighted equipment and movement activities. However, an OT cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder—this requires medical assessment. We focus on supporting your child's participation in daily activities.
How does Brighter Futures Allied Health work with NDIS funding?
Many families use NDIS funding to access our occupational therapy services. We recommend checking your child's NDIS plan to see if occupational therapy is included. Contact us to discuss your funding arrangements and how we can support your child's goals under the 2025-26 funding framework. We're happy to answer questions about our fees and funding options.
What can I expect in my child's first session?
Your occupational therapist will gather information about your child's strengths, challenges, and daily routines through conversation and observation. They may suggest some activities to see how your child engages. This helps us understand your child's needs and develop a personalised plan. We'll discuss goals with you and explain how Brighter Futures Allied Health can support your family.
