ADHD Support at Rehabilitation Specialists — Across ACT

Children with ADHD often experience challenges with sensory processing and fine motor coordination, which can impact their ability to focus, organise tasks, and engage in learning. At Rehabilitation Specialists, our occupational therapists address these underlying difficulties through targeted interventions. Sensory processing support helps children regulate their nervous system—for example, using weighted equipment or sensory breaks with movement activities can help a child settle before schoolwork. Fine motor work strengthens the hand control needed for writing and self-care tasks, reducing frustration during academic activities. Rehabilitation Specialists may also incorporate structured activities like threading, scissor work, or handwriting practice tailored to each child's needs. These services can support children in managing attention-related challenges in daily life. Many families access support through NDIS funding (2025-26 rates), though we recommend confirming our registration status when enquiring. Our occupational therapists work collaboratively with families and schools to build strategies that help children succeed at home and in the classroom.
