Services TOTS offers for sensory processing
TOTS specialises in sensory processing support for children who experience difficulties with how their bodies interpret sensory information from their environment. Children with sensory processing challenges may be oversensitive to sounds, textures, or movement, or undersensitive and seek intense sensory input. At TOTS across QLD, occupational therapists use tailored sensory interventions to help children develop better regulation and participation in everyday activities. Examples include working with sensory swings and weighted equipment to provide calming input, practising fine-motor activities like threading or playdough manipulation to build body awareness, and creating structured sensory diets—personalised activity plans children can use at home and school. TOTS therapists also help families understand their child's sensory needs and suggest environmental modifications. While occupational therapists cannot diagnose sensory processing disorder, they can assess sensory responses and develop strategies to support your child's development. Depending on your circumstances, NDIS funding (2025-26) may be available to support these services, and TOTS can discuss eligibility and funding options during your initial consultation.

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
How do I know if my child has sensory processing difficulties?
Children with sensory processing challenges might avoid certain textures or sounds, cover their ears in busy environments, seek constant movement, or struggle with transitions. An occupational therapist at TOTS can observe your child's responses and discuss your concerns, though they cannot diagnose conditions like autism or ADHD. A comprehensive assessment helps identify specific sensory patterns and guides therapy planning.
What should I expect during a sensory processing session at TOTS?
Sessions typically involve play-based activities tailored to your child's sensory needs—such as movement activities, tactile exploration, or calming exercises. Your therapist will explain what they're observing and teach you strategies to use at home. Sessions are designed to be engaging and fun while building your child's sensory regulation skills.
Can NDIS funding help pay for sensory processing therapy?
NDIS funding may be available depending on your child's eligibility and plan goals. TOTS can discuss your situation and help you understand funding options for 2025-26. If you're not NDIS-eligible, TOTS can also discuss alternative payment arrangements and may provide information about other support services.
