ADHD Support at Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd — Concord, NSW

Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd lists sensory processing as a service area that may be relevant for children with attention difficulties. Sensory processing difficulties often co-occur with attention challenges, as children who struggle to filter or organise sensory input may find it harder to concentrate, sit still, or follow instructions. According to its listing, the clinic addresses sensory needs through activities designed to help children better process and respond to sensory information.

Examples of sensory-based activities that occupational therapists typically use include work with sensory swings or movement equipment to help children organise their vestibular system, use of weighted items such as weighted blankets or lap pads to promote calming and focus, and structured sensory circuits—sequences of movement and tactile activities completed before learning tasks. Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd may tailor these approaches to individual children's sensory profiles.

It is important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing disorder; diagnosis remains a medical responsibility. However, therapy targeting sensory regulation may support attention and self-regulation as part of a broader support plan. Families interested in accessing services may explore NDIS funding eligibility if the child has an approved plan; however, NDIS registration for Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents are encouraged to contact the clinic directly to discuss funding options and suitability for their child's needs.
