What to expect at a first session

Sensory processing

What to expect at your child's first sensory processing occupational therapy session

Your child's first appointment will usually last 45 minutes to an hour. The occupational therapist will spend time getting to know your child and understanding their sensory experiences in everyday life.

The therapist typically observes how your child responds to different sensory inputs—like sounds, textures, movement, and touch. They may use informal activities or structured assessments to understand your child's sensory preferences and challenges.

Bring along any relevant information, such as your child's medical history, previous assessments, and notes about sensory concerns you've noticed at home or school.

After the session, the therapist will discuss their observations with you and explain what they've noticed. They'll outline next steps, which might include further sessions, strategies to try at home, or recommendations to discuss with your GP or other health professionals.

It's a good opportunity to ask questions and share what matters most to your family.

Common questions

What services does Health First Group Cairns offer for children?

Health First Group Cairns provides occupational therapy services for children, including sensory assessments and paediatric therapy. They offer appointments both in-home and via telehealth, which can be convenient depending on your family's needs. For specific details about which services suit your child's situation, it's best to contact them directly or speak with your GP about what might be helpful.

Is telehealth occupational therapy effective for my child?

Telehealth can work well for some families, offering flexibility and reducing travel time. However, whether it's suitable depends on your child's needs and your home setup. Some therapy may benefit from in-person sessions. Discussing your child's circumstances with Health First Group Cairns or your GP can help determine the best approach for your family.
