ADHD Support at Kid Speak — Across WA

Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often benefit from targeted support in sensory processing and fine motor skills, both areas where Kid Speak provides specialised occupational therapy. Sensory processing work helps children regulate their nervous system and improve focus—for example, using weighted blankets or compression equipment during activities, or incorporating movement breaks with sensory swings to help reset attention levels. Fine motor interventions support the hand strength and coordination needed for writing, drawing, and self-care tasks, which can reduce frustration and build confidence. Kid Speak uses practical activities like threading, scissor work, and pencil grip exercises tailored to each child's needs. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 rates), which can cover occupational therapy support when a child has an approved plan. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or attention difficulties, they work collaboratively with your child's medical team to address the underlying skills that impact daily functioning at home and school. Kid Speak's therapists focus on building strategies and environmental adjustments that help children succeed.
