Services New Ability Health offers for autism
New Ability Health lists autism, sensory processing, and fine motor skills as areas it addresses through occupational therapy. For children with autism spectrum disorder, these three services often work together to support everyday functioning.
Sensory processing support, according to the clinic's listing, may help children who experience sensory sensitivities or seek sensory input in ways that affect their participation at home, school, or in the community. Examples of activities listed by similar clinics include work with sensory swings or weighted equipment to help regulate responses, and structured sensory circuits that combine movement and tactile experiences.
Fine motor skill development typically focuses on activities like handwriting, using cutlery, fastening buttons, or manipulating small objects—tasks that can present challenges for some autistic children. New Ability Health's listing indicates occupational therapists may use play-based exercises, adaptive tools, or graded activities to build these skills.
Autism support itself, as listed by the clinic, may involve strategies to support participation in daily routines, social situations, or transitions. Many families access occupational therapy through NDIS funding (2025-26 pricing arrangements apply). Parents considering New Ability Health are encouraged to discuss with the clinic how these three service areas might be tailored to their child's individual needs and goals.

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 an occupational therapist diagnose autism?
No. Occupational therapists cannot diagnose autism spectrum disorder. Diagnosis requires assessment by a medical professional or psychologist. However, occupational therapists can support children with an existing autism diagnosis by addressing sensory, motor, and daily living skills that may be affected.
Does New Ability Health accept NDIS funding?
New Ability Health is listed as NDIS registered in the directory. However, this listing is self-reported and has not been independently verified. Parents should contact the clinic directly to confirm current NDIS registration status, pricing arrangements for 2025-26, and whether the child's plan and goals align with services offered.
What should I expect in a first session?
Initial sessions typically involve the occupational therapist gathering information about the child's strengths, challenges, and daily routines. The therapist may observe how the child engages in play or activities. Parents are encouraged to contact New Ability Health directly to ask about their specific intake process and what to bring to the first appointment.
