Autism Support at Therapy Partners — Ipswich, QLD
Therapy Partners in Ipswich, QLD lists services that overlap with paediatric occupational therapy for autism.
Services Therapy Partners offers for autism
Children with autism spectrum disorder often experience differences in how they process sensory information, which can affect their daily functioning, learning, and social participation. Therapy Partners recognises that sensory processing support is an important part of helping autistic children develop confidence and independence. Our occupational therapists work with sensory integration strategies tailored to each child's unique profile. This might include activities such as using sensory swings or body socks to help regulate their nervous system, working with weighted equipment like lap pads or weighted vests to improve body awareness, or engaging in fine-motor activities using textured materials to build tolerance and skill. We also help children develop self-regulation strategies they can use at home and school. As a registered NDIS provider, Therapy Partners can support families accessing funding through the 2025-26 scheme to help cover these services. Our approach focuses on understanding each child's sensory preferences and sensitivities, then gradually building their capacity to engage in everyday activities with greater ease and enjoyment.

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 diagnose autism or sensory processing disorder?
No, occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism or sensory processing difficulties. Diagnosis requires assessment by a paediatrician, psychologist, or other medical professional. However, once your child has been diagnosed, Therapy Partners can assess how sensory differences affect their daily activities and provide targeted support to help them participate more fully at home, school, and in the community.
How does Therapy Partners work with NDIS funding?
Therapy Partners is registered with the NDIS, which means families with approved plans can use their funding to access our occupational therapy services. We can discuss your child's plan, help identify relevant goals, and work with you to make the most of available funding under the 2025-26 scheme. Contact us to discuss how we can support your family's NDIS journey.
What can I expect in a sensory processing session at Therapy Partners?
Sessions are individualised based on your child's needs and interests. You might see activities like sensory play with different textures, movement-based activities using equipment, or structured exercises to build body awareness and regulation skills. Your therapist will explain what they're working on and suggest strategies you can use at home to support your child's progress between sessions.
