Services Paper Scissors Play offers for adhd
Paper Scissors Play lists sensory processing support as a service offering. Sensory processing difficulties often co-occur with attention challenges in children, as the ability to filter and respond appropriately to sensory input can affect focus, behaviour, and learning readiness. According to its listing, the clinic addresses sensory processing through occupational therapy approaches.
Sensory processing interventions typically involve activities designed to help children organise and respond to sensory information more effectively. Examples of activities that occupational therapists may use include work with sensory equipment such as swings or weighted items to provide calming input, fine motor tasks that build hand strength and coordination while supporting attention, and environmental modifications that reduce sensory distractions during learning or play. Paper Scissors Play may tailor these approaches to individual children's sensory profiles.
Parents considering support should note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or sensory processing disorder—diagnosis remains a medical function. However, an OT can assess how sensory factors may be affecting a child's attention and engagement. Regarding funding, NDIS registration for Paper Scissors Play has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents should contact the clinic directly to discuss fee structures and whether services may be eligible for rebate under private health insurance or other funding arrangements for the 2025-26 period.

About adhd
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a developmental difference that affects attention, activity level, and impulse control. In Australia, ADHD is diagnosed by a paediatrician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, often after a family or school notices ongoing differences in attention, behaviour, or self-regulation across multiple settings.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose ADHD or attention difficulties?
No. Occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or attention disorders—diagnosis is a medical function performed by doctors or psychologists. However, an OT can assess how sensory processing, motor skills, and environmental factors may be affecting a child's ability to focus and participate in daily activities, and can suggest strategies to support attention.
How does sensory processing work relate to my child's attention difficulties?
Children who struggle to filter or organise sensory information (sounds, touch, movement) may find it harder to concentrate because their brain is working overtime to process background input. Sensory processing support aims to help children regulate their sensory systems so they can focus better on tasks. Paper Scissors Play lists sensory processing as a service, which may address these underlying factors.
Does Paper Scissors Play accept NDIS funding?
NDIS registration for Paper Scissors Play has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot. Parents should contact the clinic directly to ask about accepted funding sources, including NDIS, private health insurance, or out-of-pocket fees, and to discuss what options may be available for their circumstances.
