ADHD Support at Guide Me Occupational Therapy — Across NSW

Guide Me Occupational Therapy supports children with attention difficulties through targeted work in sensory processing and fine motor skills, both of which significantly impact focus and self-regulation. Children with attention challenges often struggle with sensory input—they may be over-responsive to noise and movement, or under-responsive and seek intense stimulation. Our sensory processing interventions help children develop better awareness and control, such as using weighted blankets or compression vests during learning tasks, or incorporating movement breaks with a therapy ball to help reset their nervous system. Fine motor difficulties can also affect attention, as struggling with pencil grip or handwriting creates frustration and avoidance. Guide Me Occupational Therapy uses targeted fine motor exercises—like threading activities, scissor work, and adaptive writing tools—to build confidence and reduce the cognitive load of writing tasks, allowing children to concentrate better on learning. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing disorder, we work collaboratively with families and other professionals to address the underlying skills affecting your child's attention and participation. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 rates), though we can discuss payment options during your initial consultation.
