Autism Support at Cooee Speech Pathology — Across QLD
Cooee Speech Pathology in Across QLD lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Cooee Speech Pathology offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can impact daily activities like eating, writing, and self-care. At Cooee Speech Pathology across Queensland, our occupational therapy team works with children to build confidence and independence in these areas. Sensory processing support might include activities such as weighted blanket use during transitions, obstacle course play to develop body awareness, or brushing protocols to help regulate responses to touch. Fine motor interventions could involve threading activities, scissor skills practice, or adaptive pencil grips to support writing development. These services can be funded through NDIS plans (2025-26), depending on your child's individual goals and funding allocation. Our therapists collaborate with families to identify which sensory and motor strategies work best for each child, recognising that autism presents differently for everyone. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, Cooee Speech Pathology tailors interventions to support your child's unique sensory profile and motor needs, helping them participate more fully in school, home, and community activities.

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 diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder—these diagnoses come from medical professionals or psychologists. However, our team at Cooee Speech Pathology can assess how sensory and motor differences affect your child's daily functioning and develop strategies to support them, working alongside your child's existing diagnosis and care team.
How do I know if my child's NDIS plan will cover services at Cooee Speech Pathology?
NDIS funding depends on your child's individual plan and goals. We recommend checking your plan documents or contacting your NDIS planner to confirm which services are funded. While we work with many families accessing NDIS support, registration status can vary, so it's best to discuss funding options directly with our team when you enquire.
What should I expect in the first session?
In your first visit to Cooee Speech Pathology, our occupational therapist will chat with you about your child's strengths, challenges, and daily routines. We'll observe how your child engages with activities and sensory experiences. This helps us understand their needs and create a plan tailored to your family's goals and priorities.
