Services Everyday Independence offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can affect their daily routines and participation in school and home activities. At Everyday Independence in Narangba, occupational therapists address these areas through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their responses to sounds, textures, lights and movement—for example, using sensory swings or weighted equipment to promote calm and focus, or introducing graded exposure to challenging textures during play-based activities. Fine motor therapy targets skills like pencil grip, scissor control and fastening buttons, essential for writing, self-care and independence. Everyday Independence uses practical activities such as threading, playdough manipulation and handwriting exercises to build strength and coordination. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can cover occupational therapy support when autism is part of a child's support plan. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism, but they work collaboratively with families and other professionals to support your child's functional goals and everyday independence.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder. However, they can identify sensory processing and fine motor differences that may be present and work with your child to support these areas. Diagnosis is completed by medical professionals such as paediatricians or psychologists. Everyday Independence therapists collaborate with your child's diagnostic team to provide complementary support.
How can NDIS funding help my child access services at Everyday Independence?
If your child has an approved NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy supports, you can use your funding to access services at Everyday Independence, which is NDIS registered. Speak with your NDIS planner about including occupational therapy goals in your plan. The clinic can discuss how 2025-26 funding arrangements apply to your child's needs.
What should I expect in a sensory or fine motor session?
Sessions are play-based and tailored to your child's interests and goals. A sensory session might include movement activities, texture exploration or calming strategies. Fine motor sessions focus on practical skills like writing, cutting or dressing through games and activities. Your therapist will explain what they're working on and suggest strategies you can use at home to support progress.
