Services NAPA Centre offers for sensory processing
NAPA Centre offers specialised sensory processing support through occupational therapy tailored to each child's individual needs. Sensory processing difficulties can affect how children respond to everyday stimuli like sounds, textures, movement and touch, impacting their participation in school, play and daily routines. At NAPA Centre, occupational therapists work with children using evidence-based strategies to help them better understand and manage their sensory experiences. Interventions might include activities such as using sensory swings or body socks to provide calming input, working with weighted equipment like lap pads or weighted vests to improve focus and body awareness, and practising fine-motor activities with different textured materials to build tolerance and skill. The clinic takes a collaborative approach, working with families to identify sensory triggers and develop practical strategies for home and school environments. Many families access NAPA Centre's services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing structures apply where eligible), though funding arrangements vary depending on individual plans. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, autism or ADHD, but can assess how sensory differences affect your child's daily functioning and recommend appropriate support.

About sensory processing
Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has sensory processing difficulties?
Signs may include extreme reactions to sounds, textures or lights; difficulty with transitions; avoiding certain foods or clothing; clumsiness; or seeking intense movement or pressure. An occupational therapist at NAPA Centre can assess how sensory experiences affect your child's daily life, though they cannot diagnose conditions like autism or ADHD. If you're concerned, discuss observations with your GP or paediatrician first.
Can NAPA Centre help my child if they have autism or ADHD as well?
Yes. Many children with autism or ADHD experience sensory processing differences. NAPA Centre's occupational therapists can address sensory challenges and their impact on functioning, regardless of other diagnoses. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD or sensory processing disorder—these require medical assessment. The clinic works alongside other professionals supporting your child.
Does NDIS funding cover services at NAPA Centre?
NAPA Centre's NDIS registration status is not confirmed, so funding eligibility varies. If your child has an NDIS plan, check whether occupational therapy is included and whether NAPA Centre is a registered provider in your area. Contact the clinic directly to discuss funding options and out-of-pocket costs for 2025-26.
