Autism Support at Posity — Across VIC
Posity in Across VIC lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Posity offers for autism
Posity provides early intervention services tailored to support children with autism spectrum disorder during critical developmental periods. Early intervention focuses on building foundational skills in communication, social interaction, sensory processing, and daily living tasks. At Posity, occupational therapists work with children to develop these abilities through play-based and structured activities. Examples include using sensory circuits—combining movement activities like crawling under tables and jumping on cushions—to help regulate nervous systems and improve body awareness. Fine motor activities such as threading beads, scissor skills practice, and handwriting preparation support independence in self-care and learning. Visual schedules and social stories help children understand routines and expectations, reducing anxiety around transitions. Early intervention can be funded through the NDIS for eligible children, making these services more accessible. Posity's registered NDIS status means families can access funding to support their child's therapy goals. Starting early intervention allows children to develop skills that support participation in school, family life, and community activities.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder. Diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician, psychologist, or developmental specialist. However, occupational therapists at Posity can identify functional difficulties in areas like sensory processing, motor skills, and daily living tasks, then work with your child to build these skills regardless of diagnosis.
How does early intervention help my autistic child?
Early intervention supports skill development during important developmental windows. Posity's occupational therapists help children improve communication, social skills, sensory regulation, and independence in daily tasks like dressing and eating. Starting early can help your child develop confidence and reduce frustration, supporting better participation at home, school, and in the community.
How do I access NDIS funding for therapy at Posity?
If your child is NDIS-eligible, you can include occupational therapy in your plan. Posity is NDIS-registered, so families can use their plan funding for sessions. Contact Posity directly to discuss your child's needs and how to arrange therapy. Your NDIS planner can provide information about funding allocations for 2025-26.
