ADHD Support at Horizon Allied Health Occupational Therapy — Williams Landing, VIC

Horizon Allied Health Occupational Therapy lists sensory processing and handwriting support among its services, both of which are commonly addressed in occupational therapy for children with attention difficulties. Sensory processing work typically focuses on helping children regulate their responses to sensory input, which can support sustained attention and reduce fidgeting or avoidance behaviours. Examples of activities might include work with sensory equipment such as weighted blankets or vests, movement-based activities like balance beam or trampoline work, and environmental modifications to reduce sensory distractions. Handwriting difficulties often co-occur with attention challenges, as fine motor control and the cognitive demands of writing can be taxing for children with ADHD. Horizon Allied Health Occupational Therapy may address this through exercises targeting pencil grip, hand strength, and letter formation practice, alongside strategies to make writing tasks less effortful. It is important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing disorder; diagnosis remains a medical role. Families interested in accessing support through NDIS funding should note that NDIS registration for this clinic has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents are encouraged to contact the clinic directly to discuss funding eligibility and service availability for their child's specific needs.
