Developmental delay Support at Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre — Bendigo, VIC
Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre in Bendigo, VIC lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for developmental delay.
Services Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre offers for developmental delay
Children with developmental delay often experience challenges with fine motor skills—the precise hand and finger movements needed for everyday tasks like writing, fastening buttons, and using cutlery. At Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre in Bendigo, occupational therapists work with children to build these essential skills through targeted, play-based activities. Our fine motor interventions might include threading beads and manipulating small objects to strengthen hand muscles, scissor skills training to develop cutting control, and pencil grip exercises that prepare children for writing. We also incorporate hand-strengthening activities using therapy putty and adaptive tools that make tasks more manageable. These sessions are designed to progress gradually, building confidence alongside capability. Many families access our services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements), which can support ongoing therapy. Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre tailors each program to your child's specific needs, working collaboratively with families to ensure skills learnt in therapy transfer to home and school environments.

Common questions
How do I know if my child has a developmental delay in fine motor skills?
Signs include difficulty holding a pencil, struggling with buttons or zips, messy eating, or reluctance to participate in drawing and writing activities. An occupational therapist at Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre can assess your child's fine motor development and identify specific areas needing support. Early identification helps maximise progress during critical developmental periods.
Can occupational therapy help if my child has autism or ADHD?
Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism, ADHD, or sensory processing differences—that's a medical role. However, an OT can address the functional difficulties these conditions may cause, including fine motor challenges. Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre works with children across various presentations to improve their everyday skills and independence.
How can I access NDIS funding for therapy at your clinic?
If your child has an approved NDIS plan, you can use allocated funding for occupational therapy services. Contact Psych Assessment and Therapy Centre directly to discuss your child's plan and how our services align with your goals. We can guide you through the process and help maximise your funding.
