Services Western Kids Health offers for autism
Western Kids Health provides early intervention occupational therapy services designed to support children with autism spectrum disorder during crucial developmental years. Early intervention focuses on building foundational skills in sensory processing, motor development, and daily living activities that can positively influence a child's trajectory. At Western Kids Health, our occupational therapists work with children on activities tailored to their individual needs—such as sensory motor activities using equipment like weighted blankets or textured materials to help with sensory regulation, fine motor skill development through play-based tasks like threading or scissor work, and structured routines using visual supports to aid transitions and understanding. These interventions aim to increase independence, reduce anxiety, and improve participation in everyday activities at home and school. Many families access early intervention services through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements apply), which can cover occupational therapy support for eligible children. Western Kids Health can discuss funding options and how early intervention might support your child's development. Please note that occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism; however, they work collaboratively with other professionals to support children identified with autism spectrum disorder.

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 help my child with autism?
Occupational therapists at Western Kids Health support children with autism by addressing sensory processing, motor skills, and daily living activities. OTs cannot diagnose autism, but they work with children who have been diagnosed to build skills in areas like self-care, play, and managing sensory sensitivities. Early intervention can help develop foundational abilities during important developmental periods.
How do I access services and what are the costs?
Western Kids Health can discuss funding options, including NDIS support (2025-26 pricing arrangements apply) for eligible children.

Your occupational therapist will work with you to understand your child's strengths and challenges, and will involve you in planning strategies to support progress at home and in the community.
