Services Roaming Therapy offers for autism
Roaming Therapy lists sensory processing as a service offered to children. For children with autism spectrum disorder, sensory processing difficulties are common and can affect how a child responds to sounds, textures, movement, and visual input in their environment. Occupational therapists typically address sensory needs through structured activities designed to help children regulate their responses and participate more comfortably in daily routines.
According to its listing, Roaming Therapy may support sensory processing through activities such as weighted equipment use (like weighted vests or lap pads to provide calming input), movement-based interventions (such as swinging or trampolining to help with balance and body awareness), and tactile exploration activities (like playing with different textured materials to build tolerance). These types of interventions aim to help children develop better awareness of their body in space and manage sensory input more effectively.
Families accessing services for sensory processing may be eligible for NDIS funding under the 2025-26 scheme, depending on their child's plan. However, NDIS registration for Roaming Therapy has not been confirmed in the current directory snapshot, so families should verify funding eligibility and provider registration status directly with the clinic before commencing services.

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.

Sessions typically involve activities tailored to the child's sensory needs, such as movement activities, tactile play, or use of equipment like weighted items. The occupational therapist will assess the child's responses and adjust activities accordingly. Sessions may also include strategies for home and school to support the child's sensory regulation throughout the day.
