Autism Support at OT with HART — Across NSW
OT with HART in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services OT with HART offers for autism
Early intervention occupational therapy plays an important role in supporting children with autism spectrum disorder during their formative years. At OT with HART, early intervention services focus on developing foundational skills that support daily functioning, social participation, and independence. Through tailored activities, children work on sensory regulation—such as using sensory swings and weighted equipment to help organise their nervous system—alongside fine motor skill development through play-based exercises like threading, cutting, and handwriting preparation. OT with HART also incorporates visual schedules and structured routines to support transitions and communication. Early intervention can help children develop coping strategies for sensory sensitivities, improve coordination, and build confidence in everyday tasks like self-care and play. Many families access these services through NDIS funding, which covers eligible participants under the 2025-26 scheme. An occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism; however, they work collaboratively with families and other professionals to address the functional challenges that may accompany an autism diagnosis, helping children participate more fully in home, school, and community settings.

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 therapy addresses functional challenges that may accompany autism, such as sensory sensitivities, motor skill development, and daily living tasks. OT with HART provides early intervention services designed to support these areas. However, an occupational therapist cannot diagnose autism. Therapy focuses on helping your child develop skills and strategies to participate more independently in everyday activities.
How does NDIS funding work with OT with HART?
OT with HART is NDIS registered, meaning eligible participants can use their NDIS funding to access early intervention occupational therapy services. Funding arrangements vary based on individual plans and 2025-26 scheme guidelines. We recommend discussing your child's eligibility and funding options directly with the clinic to understand how their plan can support therapy.
What does a typical early intervention session involve?
Sessions are tailored to your child's needs and may include sensory activities (such as swings or weighted equipment), fine motor exercises, play-based learning, and strategies for daily routines. OT with HART works with families to identify goals and create activities that support participation at home, school, and in the community. Sessions are collaborative and family-focused.
