Services Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in sensory processing and fine motor development, which can impact daily activities like eating, writing, and self-care. Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy supports these areas through tailored interventions. Sensory processing work helps children regulate their responses to sights, sounds, textures, and movement—for example, using sensory swings or weighted blankets during sessions to help calm an overactive nervous system, or introducing graded exposure to challenging textures during play-based activities. Fine motor support addresses skills like pencil grip, scissor control, and hand strength through engaging activities such as threading beads, playdough manipulation, and adaptive utensil practice. Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy recognises that each child's needs are unique and works collaboratively with families to identify meaningful goals. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, they can assess how sensory and motor differences affect participation in school, home, and community settings. Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements apply), though Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy can discuss funding options during initial consultation.

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, they can assess how sensory processing and fine motor differences affect your child's daily activities and participation. If you're seeking diagnosis, your GP can refer you to a developmental paediatrician or psychologist. Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy can support your child regardless of diagnosis status.
How does Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy tailor sessions for autistic children?
Sessions are individualised based on your child's sensory preferences, communication style, and goals. The therapist may adjust the environment (lighting, noise levels), use visual supports, and incorporate preferred interests into activities. Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy works closely with you to understand what works best for your child and adjusts approaches accordingly.
Does NDIS funding cover occupational therapy at Kids Collaboration?
Many families use NDIS funding for occupational therapy services, with 2025-26 pricing arrangements available. However, Kids Collaboration Occupational Therapy's NDIS registration status should be confirmed directly with the clinic. They can discuss funding options, including private sessions or other support arrangements, during your initial contact.
