ADHD Support at Little Souls Occupational Therapy — Across QLD

Children with ADHD and attention difficulties often experience challenges with sensory processing, which can affect their ability to focus, regulate emotions, and participate in daily activities. Little Souls Occupational Therapy addresses these interconnected needs through tailored sensory processing interventions designed to help children develop better self-regulation and attention skills. Sensory activities might include using a sensory swing or weighted blanket to provide calming input, helping children settle before learning tasks, or engaging in fine-motor activities like threading beads and scissor work to build concentration and hand strength. Little Souls Occupational Therapy also incorporates movement-based strategies—such as obstacle courses or balance activities—to help children discharge excess energy in structured ways, supporting improved focus during school or home routines. These interventions work alongside environmental modifications, such as reducing visual clutter or creating quiet spaces, to optimise attention. If your child is receiving NDIS funding (2025-26), occupational therapy services may be covered under your plan. Parents should note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing difficulties; however, they can assess functional challenges and develop strategies to support participation and wellbeing.
