Sensory processing Support at Step Ahead Occupational Therapy — Across NSW
Step Ahead Occupational Therapy in Across NSW lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for sensory processing.
Services Step Ahead Occupational Therapy offers for sensory processing
Step Ahead Occupational Therapy supports children with sensory processing difficulties through two key service areas. Our sensory processing service helps children who struggle with how their bodies interpret touch, movement, sound, or visual input. We use tailored activities such as sensory circuit work—combining swinging, crawling, and balance challenges—to help children organise their sensory input more effectively. We also incorporate weighted equipment like lap pads or compression vests during structured activities to provide calming input. Our fine motor service addresses the coordination and precision skills that sensory difficulties can affect, using graded activities like threading, scissor work, and handwriting practice. Step Ahead Occupational Therapy is NDIS registered, meaning many families can access funding through their plans to support these interventions. Whether your child is funded through the NDIS (2025–26 pricing arrangements) or accessing services privately, our occupational therapists work collaboratively with you to identify which sensory and motor strategies will help your child engage more comfortably at home, school, and in the community.

About sensory processing
Sensory Processing Disorder is the term often used by families and clinicians to describe difficulties with how a child's brain interprets and responds to sensory information. This can affect how a child manages sound, touch, movement, sights, smells, tastes, and body awareness.

Common questions
Can an occupational therapist diagnose sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder or other conditions like autism or ADHD. However, our team at Step Ahead Occupational Therapy can assess how sensory and motor difficulties are affecting your child's daily life and recommend strategies and activities to support them. A medical diagnosis would come from your GP or a paediatrician.
How does NDIS funding work with Step Ahead Occupational Therapy?
Step Ahead Occupational Therapy is NDIS registered. If your child has an approved NDIS plan, you can use your funding to access our sensory processing and fine motor services. We can discuss your plan goals and help you understand how sessions are funded under 2025–26 pricing arrangements. Contact us to confirm your specific funding details.
What should I expect in a sensory processing session?
Sessions are tailored to your child's needs. You might see activities like sensory circuits (swinging, jumping, crawling), use of weighted tools, or fine motor exercises depending on what your child finds helpful. Our occupational therapist will explain what they're observing and share strategies you can use at home to support your child's sensory regulation.
