Intracare Services in Across WA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for sensory processing.
Services Intracare Services offers for sensory processing
Intracare Services supports children with sensory processing difficulties through targeted occupational therapy that addresses how their nervous system responds to everyday stimuli. Our sensory processing service helps children who struggle with sounds, textures, movement, or visual input by gradually building tolerance and developing coping strategies in a safe, controlled environment. For example, we use sensory swings and weighted equipment to help children regulate their arousal levels, making transitions between activities smoother. Fine motor work complements this approach—activities like threading, scissor skills, and hand-strengthening exercises build confidence and independence in self-care and learning tasks. We also incorporate calming techniques such as deep pressure activities and structured sensory diets tailored to each child's needs. Intracare Services works with families to understand what sensory experiences trigger distress or avoidance, then creates practical strategies for home and school. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, we assess functional difficulties and support children's participation in daily activities. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025–26 rates), though we encourage you to confirm our registration status and discuss funding options during your initial consultation.

About sensory processing
Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has sensory processing disorder, and can Intracare Services diagnose it?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder—that requires assessment by a paediatrician or psychologist. However, if your child avoids certain textures, struggles with loud noises, or has difficulty with movement activities, an OT can assess how these sensory challenges affect daily functioning and recommend strategies. Intracare Services can help clarify whether sensory factors are impacting your child's participation in school, self-care, and play.
What should I expect during the first appointment at Intracare Services?
Your first session involves discussing your child's sensory preferences, daily routines, and specific challenges. The occupational therapist observes how your child responds to different activities and environments, then develops a personalised plan. Sessions typically include sensory activities, fine motor work, and strategies you can use at home. We'll also discuss funding options, including NDIS eligibility for 2025–26.
Can sensory processing therapy help my child at school?
Yes. Intracare Services creates practical strategies and activity ideas that teachers can use in the classroom. We may recommend sensory breaks, fidget tools, or movement activities to help your child focus and participate. We can also liaise with your school to ensure consistent approaches across home and learning environments, supporting your child's engagement and wellbeing.
