How we rank providers
Rankings in Queensland use directory relevance and observable activity on Carevo: service match, distance, register-sourced status fields, whether an enquiry can reach the provider, and recent response and connection activity. Rankings are recalculated daily. They do not assess care quality or recommend a provider.
- How this list is built. Providers shown here either list autism as a capability or have connected on a Carevo enquiry associated with it; therapy, allied health, psychology, support work, and social and community support are used only as supporting service-match signals. Relevant enquiry activity ranks above self-declaration. A connection records willingness to make contact, not proof that support started, was completed, or went well.
- Activity on Carevo. We measure recent actions such as connecting on an enquiry, opening its contact details, responding, and an inquirer reporting whether a connection helped. These are platform activity signals, not an assessment of the support delivered.
- Condition-specific activity. Providers who have connected on enquiries associated with autism rank above providers who only list it as a capability. A connection is not proof of experience, quality, or a completed service.
- Service match. Providers are ranked by how closely their registered services and capabilities match what you are searching for.
- Register-sourced status. NDIS registration fields come from the NDIS Commission provider register. Aged care approval fields come from the My Aged Care register. These statuses are ranking inputs, not Carevo endorsements, and you should confirm the current register entry before choosing a provider.
- Carevo enquiries. Providers who have paused requests from us are moved down among providers with the same relevance. They stay visible and are marked as not receiving Carevo enquiries.
- Recent activity. Providers active on Carevo recently (a connection, a login, or a profile update) get a small boost, the same signal shown as "Active this week" on their card. It is deliberately small: stronger relevance and condition evidence outweigh a recent login.
- Local presence. Providers confirmed in Queensland rank above those covering only the broader region.
What the enquiries status means
It answers one question: would a request sent through Carevo today actually reach them? It is not a rating, it is not about the provider's books, and it is not a statement about their capacity, their waiting list, or the quality of their care.
- Receiving
- At least one contact on their account is set up to receive new requests from us, and someone has signed in recently enough for us to say a person is there.
- Not receiving
- Every contact on the account has unsubscribed or paused, so we have no way to pass an enquiry on.
- No status shown
- We cannot tell either way, so we say nothing rather than label the provider. The account is set to receive enquiries, but nobody has signed in recently, or there are no contact details on file. It is not a negative mark, and most listings sit here.
A provider who is not receiving our enquiries may well be taking new clients directly. Providers set this themselves and can turn it back on at any time from their Carevo account or from any email we send them. Providers not receiving our enquiries are moved down the list and never hidden. It is refreshed daily, so a provider who resumes, or signs in, reappears within a day.
What the Carevo activity rating means
The Strong activity rating describes how a provider behaves on Carevo, not the care they deliver.
- Where it starts
- Every provider starts at a baseline of 50.
- What moves it
- Enquiries from the last 90 days. The strongest positive is a care seeker naming that provider as the one who helped them. The clearest negative is connecting on an enquiry and never opening the contact details.
- How it is kept honest
- Recalculated daily from scratch, shown only above the baseline and only with at least two scored signals, and removed automatically when either stops being true. It cannot be purchased.
It is not an endorsement, a recommendation, or an assessment of care quality, and we do not screen providers for complaints. Complaints are handled by the NDIS Commission and the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission. See the full activity rating methodology.

Autism support across Queensland
Autism spectrum disorder affects communication, sensory processing, routines, and the way a person experiences everyday environments. NDIS participants with autism often need a mix of speech pathology, OT, behaviour support, psychology, support workers, and school-or-community-based strategies that work together rather than in isolation. Because support needs vary so widely, the most useful comparison is not who says they support autism, but who can show practical experience with regulation, communication, rapport, and family goals.
Carevo lists 692 NDIS providers supporting autism with active coverage across Queensland. Compare their response times and registration below, or narrow to your suburb.

How to check a provider's credentials
Carevo shows register-sourced status fields and links you to the official Australian registers so you can confirm the current entry yourself. Here is what each listing shows and where to check it. A listing on Carevo is not an endorsement.
NDIS registration
Listings show whether a provider reports being NDIS registered. You can confirm a provider's current registration and approved support types yourself on the NDIS Commission's public provider register.
Source: NDIS Quality and Safeguards CommissionAged care approval
The aged care approval label is sourced from the Australian Government's My Aged Care provider register. Confirm the current entry and the services listed there before choosing a provider.

If you have a concern about any provider, you can lodge a complaint with the NDIS Commission or the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission at any time. We also accept complaints via our own channel.
Source: NDIS Commission / Aged Care CommissionUnderstanding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Autism spectrum disorder is a lifelong neurodevelopmental condition involving differences in social communication and interaction, together with restricted or repetitive behaviours, interests, or sensory sensitivities. Under the DSM-5-TR, a diagnosis records a support level for each of those two areas: level 1 (requiring support), level 2 (requiring substantial support), and level 3 (requiring very substantial support), and the same person can sit at different levels for each. Australian diagnosis follows the National Guideline for the assessment and diagnosis of autism developed by Autism CRC, updated in 2023 and approved by the NHMRC. The ABS 2022 Survey of Disability, Ageing and Carers counted 290,900 autistic Australians, 1.1% of the population and a 41.8% increase on 2018, with prevalence of 3.1% among people under 25. Autism is one of the most common primary disabilities among NDIS participants, and it presents differently in every person. Some autistic people need minimal day-to-day support but benefit from therapy for sensory overload or social fatigue. Others need significant help with communication, personal care, and daily routines. Many autistic adults were diagnosed late and are still working out what support actually helps.
Funding Pathway Guide
Answer four questions to see which funding pathway usually applies, and what to do next. This is a guide, not an eligibility assessment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does an autism diagnosis establish NDIS eligibility?
NDIS access is assessed individually. You must meet the age and residence requirements and the disability or early intervention requirements. A diagnosis alone does not establish eligibility, a funded support or a particular budget. Ask your treating practitioner for evidence of permanence, functional impact and the support you need. The NDIA decides access and funding. Plan duration and reassessment dates vary; request a change if your circumstances or support needs change.
What is the difference between level 1, level 2 and level 3 autism for the NDIS?
Autism support levels describe support needs: level 1 means requiring support, level 2 substantial support, and level 3 very substantial support. Needs are assessed separately for social communication and restricted or repetitive behaviours. These levels do not by themselves establish NDIS eligibility or a funded budget; all relevant access requirements still apply.
What therapies help autistic children build communication skills in Queensland?
Speech pathology, occupational therapy, and behaviour support are among the most commonly funded therapies for autistic children under the NDIS in Queensland. Carevo lists relevant service providers; confirm their condition-specific experience, credentials and local availability directly.
How do I find an autism-specialist NDIS provider in Queensland?
Carevo lists NDIS providers in Queensland who work with autistic participants, but the real comparison point is practical fit. Look for providers offering behaviour support, OT, speech therapy, or support work with autism-specific experience, clear communication with families, and a track record adapting to sensory needs, routines, and different communication styles.
Can adults with autism access NDIS services in Queensland?
Yes. Adults in Queensland can apply for NDIS access before age 65 if they meet all access requirements. Existing participants can generally continue after 65. Adults can access support workers, employment assistance, social participation programs, therapy, and daily living support. Your NDIS plan will reflect your individual goals and support needs.
What early intervention services are available for autistic children in Queensland?
The early childhood approach is for children younger than 9. NDIS access under the developmental delay provisions applies to children younger than 6; other access requirements can apply to older children. Contact an early childhood partner to discuss your child's needs, evidence and available supports. Early childhood assistance does not automatically mean an NDIS plan or a funded therapy entitlement.
Does my child need a formal autism diagnosis to access the NDIS?
The early childhood approach is for children younger than 9. NDIS access under the developmental delay provisions applies to children younger than 6; other access requirements can apply to older children. Contact an early childhood partner to discuss your child's needs, evidence and available supports. Early childhood assistance does not automatically mean an NDIS plan or a funded therapy entitlement.
How much do autism support services cost under the NDIS in Queensland?
Autism support services in Queensland are priced under the 2026-27 NDIS price limits. Therapy with a psychologist caps at $252.99 per hour, occupational therapy and speech pathology at $193.99 per hour, and support workers at $73.58 per hour on weekday daytimes. These are caps, not fixed fees, and your NDIS plan funding covers approved supports.
