ADHD Support at Caswell Healthcare — Across NSW

Children with ADHD often experience difficulties with attention regulation, impulse control, and sensory processing, which can impact their ability to focus in school and manage daily activities. Caswell Healthcare offers sensory processing support that can help address these challenges by creating structured environments and using targeted interventions to improve self-regulation. Sensory activities such as weighted blanket work and deep pressure input help calm the nervous system, making it easier for children to concentrate. Movement-based interventions like balance board activities and obstacle course work provide the physical input many children with attention difficulties need to settle and focus. Fine-motor activities, including threading and handwriting tasks with sensory feedback tools, help develop the coordination and sustained attention required for schoolwork. At Caswell Healthcare, our occupational therapists work with families to identify which sensory strategies work best for each child's individual needs. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose ADHD, these sensory-focused approaches can meaningfully support attention and self-regulation. Families may be eligible for NDIS funding to access these services under the 2025-26 funding arrangements, depending on their child's plan. We recommend discussing funding options during your initial consultation.
