Services Posity offers for autism

Posity provides early intervention occupational therapy services specifically designed to support children with autism spectrum disorder. Early intervention focuses on developing foundational skills during critical developmental periods, helping children build confidence and independence in everyday activities. At Posity in Across, our occupational therapists work with children to develop sensory regulation strategies—such as using weighted blankets or sensory swings during sessions—to help manage sensory sensitivities that many autistic children experience. We also support fine motor skill development through play-based activities like threading, drawing, and self-care tasks, which builds the coordination needed for writing and eating independently. Additionally, Posity incorporates visual supports and structured routines into therapy to help children understand expectations and transitions throughout their day. Early intervention services are often funded through the NDIS (2025-26 funding year), making specialist support more accessible for eligible families. Our therapists work collaboratively with families and other professionals to create individualised plans that address each child's unique strengths and goals.

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?

Yes, occupational therapists at Posity can help children develop strategies to manage sensory sensitivities. We use graded exposure to different sensations, calming techniques, and environmental modifications to support regulation. However, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder—that requires assessment by other professionals. We work with your child's existing diagnosis to provide practical support.

How does early intervention at Posity work with NDIS funding?

Posity is NDIS registered, meaning families with eligible children can use their NDIS plan to fund occupational therapy services. Early intervention is a key focus area within NDIS plans for young children. We can discuss your child's plan and how therapy goals align with funded supports. Contact us to explore whether your child may be eligible.

What should I expect in my child's first session at Posity?

Your first session involves getting to know your child and understanding their strengths, interests, and areas where they need support. We'll discuss your goals as a family and observe how your child engages in play and daily activities. This helps us create a personalised therapy plan. Sessions are play-based and tailored to your child's needs and preferences.
