ADHD Support at Chatterbox Speech — Across NSW
Chatterbox Speech in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for adhd.
Services Chatterbox Speech offers for adhd
Children with ADHD often experience difficulties with attention regulation and sensory processing, which can impact their ability to focus, participate in daily activities, and engage socially. Chatterbox Speech supports these challenges through sensory processing interventions tailored to each child's needs. Sensory activities help children develop better body awareness and self-regulation, making it easier to concentrate and manage their energy levels. For example, Chatterbox Speech may incorporate weighted equipment during activities to provide calming input, use movement-based exercises like balance beam work to improve coordination and focus, or introduce fidget tools and textured materials that help children channel their attention more effectively. These interventions work alongside other strategies to create an environment where children can learn and thrive. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD; however, they can identify sensory processing patterns and support the child's overall functioning. Families may be eligible for NDIS funding (2025-26) to access these services, depending on their circumstances. Chatterbox Speech can discuss funding options and how therapy might support your child's individual needs.

About adhd
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a developmental difference that affects attention, activity level, and impulse control. In Australia, ADHD is diagnosed by a paediatrician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, often after a family or school notices ongoing differences in attention, behaviour, or self-regulation across multiple settings.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose ADHD?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD—this requires assessment by a medical professional or psychologist. However, OTs like those at Chatterbox Speech can identify sensory processing difficulties and other factors affecting attention and participation, then provide targeted support to help your child function better in everyday situations.
How does sensory processing work relate to attention difficulties?
Children who struggle with sensory processing may find it harder to filter distractions, regulate their energy, or stay focused. Sensory activities help calm or energise the nervous system, making it easier for children to concentrate. Chatterbox Speech uses tailored sensory strategies to support better attention and self-regulation during learning and play.
Can we access NDIS funding for these services?
Eligibility for NDIS funding depends on your individual circumstances. Chatterbox Speech can discuss your situation and help you understand what funding options may be available for 2025-26. We recommend contacting the clinic directly to explore how they can support your child and what financial arrangements suit your family.
