Autism Support at More Than Able Therapy — Across WA
More Than Able Therapy in Across WA lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services More Than Able Therapy offers for autism
More Than Able Therapy supports children with autism spectrum disorder through targeted occupational therapy addressing two key areas: sensory processing and fine motor skills. Many autistic children experience differences in how they process sensory information—some seek intense input while others find everyday sensations overwhelming. Our sensory processing support includes activities like using sensory swings, weighted blankets, and tactile exploration stations to help children regulate their responses and feel more comfortable in their environment. Fine motor development is equally important, as many autistic children benefit from structured practice with activities such as threading beads, scissor work, and handwriting exercises that build confidence and independence. More Than Able Therapy tailors each intervention to your child's individual needs and preferences, recognising that autism presents differently for every child. If you're an NDIS participant, our team can discuss how funding may support these services under the 2025-26 scheme. Please note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism; however, we work collaboratively with your child's medical team to provide meaningful support for the challenges they experience.

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 occupational therapy help my autistic child with sensory sensitivities?
Yes. Occupational therapists can help children develop strategies to manage sensory sensitivities and build tolerance for everyday activities. More Than Able Therapy uses graded sensory experiences—like controlled exposure to different textures or movement—to support regulation. However, an OT cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder; we work with what your child experiences and help them function more comfortably.
Will occupational therapy help my child with handwriting and fine motor skills?
Many autistic children benefit from fine motor support tailored to their needs and interests. More Than Able Therapy uses play-based and functional activities to build hand strength, coordination, and confidence with writing tools. Progress varies by child; we focus on meaningful improvements that support school and daily life participation.
Does More Than Able Therapy accept NDIS funding?
We recommend contacting More Than Able Therapy directly to confirm current NDIS registration status and discuss funding arrangements for 2025-26. Our team can explain how occupational therapy services may be covered under your child's NDIS plan and what the process involves.
