On The Move Allied Health in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services On The Move Allied Health offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning, comfort, and participation in activities. On The Move Allied Health provides sensory processing support to help children develop better awareness of and responses to sensory input from their environment. Our occupational therapists work with children using tailored sensory activities and strategies that may include weighted equipment use to provide calming input, sensory swing work to improve body awareness and vestibular processing, and structured environmental modifications to reduce overwhelming stimuli. These interventions help children regulate their responses, improve focus, and engage more comfortably in school, home, and community settings. On The Move Allied Health can discuss how services may be funded through the NDIS (2025-26 pricing arrangements) if your child is a registered participant, or through private payment. It's important to note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder; however, they can support children identified with autism by addressing sensory processing challenges that impact their everyday participation and wellbeing.

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 child with autism?
Occupational therapists can support children with autism by addressing sensory processing differences, fine and gross motor skills, self-care routines, and participation in daily activities. However, OTs cannot diagnose autism. If your child hasn't been formally assessed, your GP or paediatrician can provide referral pathways. On The Move Allied Health can work with your child once autism has been identified by an appropriate professional.
How is occupational therapy funded for children with autism?
Funding options depend on your circumstances. If your child is an NDIS participant, therapy may be covered under your plan using 2025-26 pricing arrangements. Private health insurance may offer some rebates, and some families pay privately. On The Move Allied Health can discuss available funding options during your initial consultation to help you understand costs and eligibility.
What should I expect during the first appointment?
Your occupational therapist will gather information about your child's sensory preferences, daily routines, and specific challenges. They'll observe how your child engages with activities and their environment. Together, you'll identify goals that matter to your family. On The Move Allied Health will then develop a personalised plan with strategies and activities tailored to your child's needs.
