Services Fields Occupational Therapy offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning and participation in activities. Fields Occupational Therapy supports children with autism by addressing sensory processing challenges through tailored interventions. Our occupational therapists work with children to help them better understand and respond to sensory input in their environment. For example, we may use sensory swings or weighted blankets to help children who seek deep pressure input, or provide a calm sensory space with reduced lighting and sound for children who are sensitive to overstimulation. We also incorporate fine-motor activities such as threading, cutting, and hand-strength exercises that support independence with self-care tasks like dressing and eating. Fields Occupational Therapy can work with families to explore NDIS funding options for 2025-26, which may help cover the cost of ongoing therapy sessions and equipment. Our goal is to help each child develop strategies and skills that support their engagement at home, school, and in the community.

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, Fields Occupational Therapy can assess how sensory processing and daily living skills are affecting your child's participation and wellbeing. If you're concerned about autism, your GP can refer you to a paediatrician or developmental specialist for assessment.
How do I know if my child needs sensory support?
Children may need sensory support if they avoid certain textures or sounds, seek intense physical input, struggle with transitions, or have difficulty with self-care routines. Fields Occupational Therapy can conduct an assessment to understand your child's sensory needs and recommend strategies tailored to your family's situation.
Does Fields Occupational Therapy accept NDIS funding?
NDIS registration status should be confirmed directly with Fields Occupational Therapy. If your child has an NDIS plan for 2025-26, the clinic can discuss how therapy sessions may be funded through your plan and what support is available for your family.
