Services Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd offers for adhd
Children with ADHD often experience difficulties with attention regulation and sensory processing, which can affect their ability to focus, participate in daily activities, and manage their emotions. At Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd, sensory processing support helps children develop better body awareness and self-regulation strategies. Through tailored interventions, children learn to manage sensory input more effectively, which can improve concentration and reduce fidgeting during tasks. For example, weighted blankets or compression vests may help some children feel more grounded, whilst movement breaks using a sensory swing or trampoline can help reset their nervous system between activities. Fine-motor activities like threading beads or using fidget tools during learning tasks can also channel restless energy productively. Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd works with families to identify which sensory strategies work best for each child's unique needs. If you're considering support, it's worth noting that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD, but they can address the functional difficulties associated with attention challenges. Depending on your circumstances, services may be funded through the NDIS (2025–26 pricing arrangements apply), private health insurance, or out-of-pocket fees.

About adhd
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a developmental difference that affects attention, activity level, and impulse control. In Australia, ADHD is diagnosed by a paediatrician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, often after a family or school notices ongoing differences in attention, behaviour, or self-regulation across multiple settings.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose ADHD?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or other medical conditions. However, they can assess how attention difficulties affect your child's daily functioning—such as completing schoolwork, self-care, or play—and provide strategies to support these areas. If you're seeking a diagnosis, your GP or paediatrician can arrange appropriate assessments.
How does sensory processing support help with attention difficulties?
Children with attention difficulties often struggle to filter sensory information, which can be distracting or overwhelming. Sensory strategies—like movement breaks, weighted tools, or fidget activities—help regulate their nervous system and improve focus. Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd tailors these approaches to each child's sensory preferences and needs.
