Autism Support at CliniKids — Subiaco, WA
CliniKids in Subiaco, WA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services CliniKids offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning, learning, and social participation. CliniKids offers sensory processing support to help children develop better awareness of and responses to sensory input from their environment. Our occupational therapists work with children using tailored activities such as weighted blanket and compression garment trials to provide calming input, obstacle course activities that build body awareness and motor planning, and structured sensory breaks using items like fidget tools and textured materials. These interventions can help reduce sensory overwhelm, improve focus during learning, and support participation in everyday routines like mealtimes and transitions. CliniKids can work with families to understand their child's sensory needs and develop practical strategies for home and school. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, it plays an important role in addressing the sensory and functional challenges that often accompany it. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025–26 pricing structures apply), and we encourage you to discuss funding options during your initial consultation.

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 child with autism?
Occupational therapy can support children with autism by addressing sensory processing differences, fine and gross motor skills, and daily living activities. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism. CliniKids works with children to improve their ability to participate in school, home, and community activities based on their individual needs and strengths.
How does sensory processing support work at CliniKids?
Our occupational therapists assess how your child responds to sensory experiences and design activities to help them process sensory input more effectively. This might include movement activities, use of weighted or textured materials, or environmental modifications. We also teach families strategies to support sensory regulation at home and school.
Can I use NDIS funding for services at CliniKids?
Many families use NDIS funding for occupational therapy services. We recommend contacting CliniKids directly to discuss your funding options and whether services can be claimed under your plan. Our team can provide information about current pricing arrangements for 2025–26.
