ADHD Support at The OT Group — Moonee Ponds, VIC
The OT Group in Moonee Ponds, VIC lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for adhd.
Services The OT Group offers for adhd
Children with ADHD often experience difficulties with attention, impulse control, and sensory regulation. The OT Group recognises that sensory processing challenges frequently co-occur with attention difficulties, affecting how children filter and respond to environmental stimuli. Through sensory processing support, our occupational therapists help children develop better self-regulation strategies, which can improve focus and reduce fidgeting during learning and daily activities.
At The OT Group in Moonee Ponds, sensory interventions are tailored to each child's needs. Examples include using weighted blankets or weighted vests to provide calming proprioceptive input during homework or classroom time, movement breaks on a therapy ball or trampoline to help reset attention between tasks, and creating sensory-friendly spaces with reduced visual and auditory distractions. We also work with families to identify which sensory activities help their child concentrate best.
Many families access these services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing structures apply for registered participants). Our team collaborates with parents and schools to embed sensory strategies into everyday routines, supporting children to manage their attention more effectively at home and in educational settings. While occupational therapy cannot diagnose ADHD, sensory processing support can be a valuable part of a comprehensive approach to helping children thrive.

About adhd
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a developmental difference that affects attention, activity level, and impulse control. In Australia, ADHD is diagnosed by a paediatrician, psychiatrist, or psychologist, often after a family or school notices ongoing differences in attention, behaviour, or self-regulation across multiple settings.

Common questions
Can occupational therapy diagnose ADHD or attention difficulties?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose ADHD or attention disorders—this requires assessment by a medical professional or psychologist. However, The OT Group can assess sensory processing and provide strategies to support regulation and focus, which often helps children with diagnosed attention difficulties manage their symptoms more effectively in daily life.
How does sensory processing support help a child who struggles to concentrate?
Children with attention difficulties often find it hard to filter sensory information, making environments feel overwhelming. Sensory strategies—like movement breaks, weighted equipment, or quiet spaces—help calm the nervous system and improve focus. The OT Group works with families to identify which sensory activities help your child concentrate best, then builds these into routines at home and school.
Can we access The OT Group's services through NDIS funding?
Yes, The OT Group is NDIS registered. If your child has an NDIS plan that includes occupational therapy support, you can use your funding for sensory processing and attention-related interventions. We recommend checking your plan details and contacting us to discuss how we can support your child's specific needs within 2025-26 funding arrangements.
