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

Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd lists sensory processing as a service area relevant to children with autism spectrum disorder. Sensory processing difficulties are common in autistic children, who may be over-responsive or under-responsive to sounds, textures, movement, or visual input. According to its listing, the clinic addresses these challenges through sensory-based interventions. Typical activities might include use of sensory swings or weighted equipment to help regulate responses to movement and proprioceptive input, exposure to varied textures during play-based activities to build tolerance and discrimination skills, or structured environmental modifications to reduce overwhelming sensory stimuli. Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd may work with families to identify specific sensory triggers and develop coping strategies for home and community settings. It is important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder; diagnosis is made by medical or psychological professionals. Families accessing services may be eligible for NDIS funding under the 2025-26 scheme if they have a confirmed autism diagnosis and an approved plan. NDIS registration status for Koala Occupational Therapy Pty Ltd has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot, so families should contact the clinic directly to clarify funding eligibility and payment arrangements.
