Services Children’s Occupational Therapy offers for sensory processing

Children's Occupational Therapy supports children with sensory processing difficulties through tailored interventions designed to help them manage and respond to sensory information more effectively. Sensory processing work at the clinic focuses on understanding how each child experiences touch, movement, sound, and visual input, then building strategies to support their daily functioning. Common activities include use of sensory swings and suspended equipment to help regulate vestibular input, weighted blankets or compression vests to provide calming proprioceptive feedback, and structured fine-motor activities such as threading, playdough manipulation, or scissor work to improve coordination and body awareness. Children's Occupational Therapy also incorporates environmental modifications and activity grading to help children gradually build tolerance and confidence in different sensory situations—whether at home, school, or in the community. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, they work collaboratively with families and other professionals to identify sensory sensitivities and develop practical strategies. Families may be eligible for NDIS funding (2025–26) to support these services, depending on their circumstances and plan approval. The clinic takes a holistic approach, recognising that sensory challenges often affect participation in self-care, play, and learning.

About sensory processing

Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions

Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder?

No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder. However, they can assess how sensory sensitivities affect your child's daily activities and participation. Children's Occupational Therapy works alongside your GP, paediatrician, or psychologist to gather information that contributes to a fuller understanding of your child's needs. An OT's role is to identify sensory patterns and develop practical support strategies.

How can NDIS funding help access services at Children's Occupational Therapy?

If your child has an approved NDIS plan (2025–26), sensory processing support may be funded as part of your capacity-building or core supports. Children's Occupational Therapy can work with you to understand how occupational therapy aligns with your plan goals. You'll need to check your plan details or contact the NDIA to confirm eligibility. The clinic can discuss funding options during your initial consultation.

What should I expect during a sensory processing session?

Sessions typically begin with discussion about your child's sensory preferences and daily challenges. The occupational therapist observes how your child responds to different activities and environments, then uses play-based or structured activities—such as swings, weighted tools, or fine-motor tasks—to support sensory regulation. You'll receive guidance on strategies to use at home. Sessions are tailored to your child's age, interests, and goals.
