What to expect at a first session
Sensory processing
What to expect at your child's first sensory processing occupational therapy session
Your child's first appointment will usually last 45 minutes to an hour. The occupational therapist will spend time getting to know your child and understanding their sensory experiences in everyday life.
The therapist typically observes how your child responds to different sensory inputs—like sounds, textures, movement, and touch. They may use informal activities or structured assessments to understand your child's sensory preferences and challenges.
Bring along any relevant information, such as your child's medical history, previous assessments, and notes about sensory concerns you've noticed at home or school.
After the session, the therapist will discuss their observations with you and explain what they've noticed. They'll outline next steps, which might include further sessions, strategies to try at home, or recommendations to discuss with your GP or other health professionals.
It's a good opportunity to ask questions and share what matters most to your family.
Fine motor
A first session usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour. The therapist will chat with you about your child's development, daily routines, and any concerns you've noticed.
During the session, the therapist will observe your child doing everyday activities like drawing, writing, using cutlery, or playing with toys. This helps them understand how your child's hands and fingers are working.
Bring any paperwork from your GP or previous assessments, and let the therapist know about activities your child finds tricky at home or school.
After the session, the therapist will discuss what they've noticed and talk through next steps. This might include a plan for ongoing sessions, activities to practise at home, or recommendations to discuss with your GP.
Every child is different, so sessions are tailored to what your child needs. It's okay to ask questions at any time.
Common questions
What areas does Northside Speech Pathology focus on with occupational therapy?
Northside Speech Pathology offers occupational therapy services addressing fine motor skills, sensory processing, self-care skills, social skills, and visual perception for children. These areas support everyday functioning like writing, dressing, and interacting with peers. If you're concerned about your child's development in any of these areas, speak with your GP about whether an assessment might be helpful.
How do I know if my child might benefit from occupational therapy?
Children may benefit from occupational therapy if they experience difficulties with daily activities like self-care, fine motor tasks, or sensory sensitivities. Every child develops at their own pace. If you've noticed ongoing challenges affecting your child's participation in everyday activities, your GP can discuss whether an assessment would be worthwhile for your family.
What should I expect when contacting Northside Speech Pathology about services?
When you contact the clinic, you can discuss your child's needs and ask about their occupational therapy services. They'll help explain their process and what to expect.
