Autism Support at Grow & Tell — Across NSW
Grow & Tell in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Grow & Tell offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information and develop fine motor skills. At Grow & Tell, our occupational therapists address these areas through tailored interventions that support everyday functioning and participation. Sensory processing support helps children manage responses to sounds, textures, movement and visual input—for example, we might use sensory swings or weighted equipment during sessions to help regulate nervous system responses, or introduce graded exposure to different textures during play-based activities. Fine motor work focuses on skills like pencil grip, scissor control and hand coordination needed for writing, dressing and self-care tasks. Grow & Tell incorporates activities such as threading, playdough manipulation and adaptive utensil practice into sessions. Our occupational therapists work collaboratively with families to understand each child's unique sensory profile and motor needs. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can cover individualised therapy sessions. We recommend discussing with your GP or paediatrician about whether an occupational therapy referral would be helpful for your child.

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. Diagnosis is made by medical professionals such as paediatricians or developmental specialists. However, an OT can assess how sensory processing and motor skills affect your child's daily activities and participation, and provide support in these areas regardless of diagnosis.
How does Grow & Tell tailor therapy for my child's specific needs?
Our occupational therapists begin with a detailed assessment of your child's sensory responses, fine motor abilities and functional goals. We then design individualised sessions incorporating activities and strategies matched to your child's interests and learning style. We also work closely with families to understand what matters most in your child's daily life.
How can NDIS funding help us access therapy at Grow & Tell?
If your child has an approved NDIS plan, occupational therapy services may be funded as part of your supports. Grow & Tell is NDIS registered, meaning we can provide services under your plan. We recommend discussing therapy goals with your NDIS planner to ensure occupational therapy is included in your funding allocation.
