Services Making Progress Pty Ltd offers for autism
Making Progress Pty Ltd provides early intervention services specifically designed to support children with autism spectrum disorder across Queensland. Early intervention focuses on developing foundational skills during the critical early years, helping children build confidence in everyday activities. At Making Progress Pty Ltd, occupational therapists work with children on sensory regulation strategies—such as using weighted blankets or sensory swings—to help manage sensory sensitivities that many autistic children experience. Fine motor skill development is another key focus, with therapists guiding children through activities like threading beads, scissor work, and handwriting practice tailored to their individual needs. Visual supports and structured routines are also incorporated into sessions to help children understand expectations and transitions between activities. Making Progress Pty Ltd is registered with the NDIS, meaning families can access early intervention services through NDIS funding in the 2025-26 financial year. Early intervention aims to maximise each child's participation in daily routines, social situations, and learning environments, building skills that support their long-term development and independence.

About autism
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental difference that shapes how children process information, communicate, and respond to their sensory environment. In Australia, autism is identified across a wide range of ages, and many families first speak with a GP or paediatrician about referrals for assessment after noticing differences in play, communication, sensory responses, or daily routines.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder. However, they work collaboratively with other professionals like paediatricians and psychologists who conduct formal assessments. At Making Progress Pty Ltd, our occupational therapists focus on identifying and supporting the functional challenges your child experiences, regardless of diagnosis, helping them participate more fully in daily activities.
How does early intervention help my autistic child?
Early intervention targets skills during crucial developmental years when children's brains are most adaptable. Making Progress Pty Ltd uses evidence-based strategies to address sensory sensitivities, fine motor skills, self-care routines, and social participation. Early support can help reduce frustration, build confidence, and establish positive patterns that benefit your child's learning and relationships throughout childhood.
Can we access Making Progress Pty Ltd services through the NDIS?
Yes, Making Progress Pty Ltd is registered with the NDIS. If your child has an approved NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy funding, you can use those funds for early intervention services at our clinic. We recommend discussing your child's specific needs and funding allocation with our team to plan appropriate support.
