Sensory processing Support at cohealth Occupational Therapy — Across VIC

Cohealth Occupational Therapy supports children with sensory processing difficulties through targeted interventions across two key service areas. Our sensory processing service helps children regulate their responses to everyday stimuli—such as sounds, textures, and movement—through structured activities tailored to each child's needs. Examples include using sensory swings or weighted equipment to help children feel more grounded, and creating calm-down spaces with predictable sensory tools. Our fine motor service addresses the coordination and control challenges that often accompany sensory processing difficulties, using activities like threading, scissor work, and handwriting exercises to build confidence and independence. At cohealth Occupational Therapy in Across, we work collaboratively with families to identify what sensory strategies work best for your child at home and school. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, we can assess how sensory challenges affect daily functioning and develop practical strategies to support participation. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), though we encourage you to discuss funding options during your initial consultation.
