Services OT for Me offers for autism
OT for Me lists sensory processing as a service area relevant to supporting children with autism spectrum disorder. Sensory processing differences are common in autistic children, and occupational therapists typically address these through structured activities designed to help children regulate their responses to sensory input. According to its listing, the clinic may support children in managing sensory sensitivities or seeking behaviours through tailored interventions.
Sensory processing work often involves activities such as using sensory swings or weighted blankets to provide calming input, engaging in fine-motor tasks like threading or scissor work to build coordination, and creating predictable routines with visual supports to reduce anxiety in new environments. OT for Me may also incorporate movement-based activities, fidget tools, or environmental modifications to help children feel more comfortable during daily routines.
It is important to note that an occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder or sensory processing disorder; diagnosis remains the role of medical professionals. If a child has been diagnosed with autism, NDIS funding may be available to support therapy costs in the 2025-26 financial year. However, NDIS registration for OT for Me has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents considering this clinic should verify current registration status and funding eligibility directly with the service.

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?
Occupational therapists can support children with sensory sensitivities through structured activities and environmental adjustments. OT for Me lists sensory processing as a service area. However, an OT cannot diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder—these require medical assessment. If your child has a diagnosis, an OT can work with identified sensory needs to improve comfort and participation in daily activities.
Does OT for Me accept NDIS funding?
NDIS registration for OT for Me has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. If your child has an NDIS plan, you should contact the clinic directly to ask about their current registration status and whether they can accept NDIS funding for the 2025-26 financial year. They can advise on payment options available.
What kinds of activities might my child do in sensory processing sessions?
Sensory processing sessions typically include activities tailored to the child's needs, such as movement work with swings or weighted equipment, fine-motor tasks like threading or cutting, and routine-building with visual supports. OT for Me would design activities based on the individual child's sensory profile and goals, though specific session content should be discussed directly with the clinic.
