Services Kids Matters OT offers for sensory processing
Children with sensory processing disorder often struggle to interpret and respond to everyday sensory information—sounds, textures, movements, and touch can feel overwhelming or underwhelming. Kids Matters OT in Yeerongpilly supports these children through targeted sensory processing and fine motor interventions tailored to their individual needs. Sensory processing work might include activities such as using a sensory swing to help regulate vestibular input, or working with weighted equipment like weighted vests or lap pads to provide calming proprioceptive feedback. Fine motor activities complement this approach, as many children with sensory processing differences also experience coordination challenges; Kids Matters OT uses structured exercises like threading, scissor work, and hand-strengthening activities to build confidence and control. An occupational therapist will observe how your child responds to different sensory experiences and design a programme that helps them feel more settled and engaged at home, school, and in the community. If you hold an NDIS plan, Kids Matters OT is registered to provide services under the 2025–26 funding arrangements, making therapy more accessible for eligible participants.

About sensory processing

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder or conditions like autism or ADHD. However, an OT can observe how your child responds to sensory experiences and identify areas where sensory processing may be affecting daily activities. A formal diagnosis comes from a paediatrician, psychologist, or developmental specialist. Kids Matters OT works alongside these professionals to support your child's needs.
How long does therapy typically take to see changes?
Every child progresses at their own pace. Some children notice improvements in focus or calmness within a few weeks, while others take longer. Consistency is important—regular sessions combined with home strategies tend to be most helpful. Your occupational therapist at Kids Matters OT will discuss realistic timeframes and goals during your initial consultation.
Will NDIS funding cover sensory processing therapy at Kids Matters OT?
Kids Matters OT is NDIS registered, so if you have an active plan that includes occupational therapy supports, you may be able to use your funding for sessions. Eligibility and funding amounts vary by participant. Contact the clinic directly to discuss your plan and how services align with your child's goals.
