ASD support services may include paediatric occupational therapy, paediatric speech therapy, and play‑based therapy approaches that help children feel safe, understood, and more confident in everyday activities. Families looking for ASD parent support in Gympie are guided to understand their child’s strengths, sensory profile, and communication style, with clear strategies to use at home, school, and other settings. Whether your child is newly diagnosed or you are still exploring concerns, therapists work alongside you to set goals that help improve daily life for both you and your child.

Therapy Programs and Team Approach
Early intervention ASD services at Malone Therapy often involve a combination of occupational therapy, speech therapy, and play‑based sessions matched to your child’s interests and developmental stage. Therapy is designed to support skills such as regulation, attention, social connection, self‑care, and participation in learning and play. Families can also be linked with occupational therapy sensory assessment, play‑based therapy, and tools from the Malone Therapy child development app to continue learning between sessions. This coordinated approach helps children work on underlying foundations (like sensory processing and motor skills) at the same time as communication and social interaction.
NDIS and Accessing Autism Services
Malone Therapy provides NDIS‑funded autism services in Gympie for eligible families, including early childhood and school‑aged supports. The team can help you understand how therapy fits with your child’s NDIS goals and collaborate with other providers where needed. Malone Therapy provides detailed developmental and functional assessments and prepares reports and observations that can support autism‑related referrals and NDIS applications where needed. Therapists also work alongside paediatricians, psychologists, and other ASD specialists as part of your child’s broader support network.
