Status unconfirmed

Services Health2GO offers for autism

Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information and develop fine motor skills. Health2GO's occupational therapy services address these areas through tailored interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement—for example, using sensory swings or weighted blankets during sessions to help with calming and body awareness. Fine motor work focuses on developing hand strength and coordination needed for writing, fastening buttons, and self-care tasks, using activities like threading beads, scissor practice, and pencil grip exercises. Health2GO therapists work collaboratively with families to understand each child's unique sensory profile and motor needs. If your family holds an NDIS plan, occupational therapy services may be funded under supports for daily living or improved daily functioning goals. While an occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder, they can identify sensory and motor challenges and develop strategies to support participation in everyday activities 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, Health2GO's OTs can assess sensory processing and fine motor skills, identify areas where your child may need support, and work with you and other professionals involved in your child's care to develop strategies that help with daily activities and participation.

How does Health2GO support sensory needs in autistic children?

Health2GO uses sensory-based activities tailored to your child's needs—such as movement breaks, tactile exploration, and regulated environments—to help improve sensory regulation. Sessions might include swinging, weighted equipment use, or calming activities. The therapist will work with you to identify what helps your child feel more settled and organised.

Can NDIS funding cover occupational therapy at Health2GO?

Many families use NDIS funding for occupational therapy services. Health2GO can discuss your plan and how therapy goals align with NDIS support categories for 2025-26. Contact the clinic directly to confirm registration status and funding eligibility for your circumstances.
