My Sensory Experiences Tool (MYSET) is an innovative resource developed by Autism Queensland (AQ) to help autistic people explore, communicate, and advocate their sensory experiences, needs, and preferences.
Developed by the award-winning creators of the Adolescent/Adult Goal Setting Tool (AAGST), MYSET is designed to transform the way sensory experiences are understood and supported. It provides a practical, person-centred approach to exploring how autistic and other neurodivergent people experience and respond to the sensory world around them, helping to identify what feels comfortable, what can be challenging, and what supports may make everyday environments and activities more accessible.
By giving participants a structured way to communicate their sensory experiences, MYSET helps families, educators, therapists, and other professionals move beyond assumptions and develop a deeper understanding of each person’s unique sensory profile. This can inform more personalised supports, environments, and strategies that respect individual preferences, promote autonomy, and support participation in everyday life.
The tool is designed for use across a range of settings and can support autistic and neurodivergent people (from as young as 5 years old through to adulthood), families and carers, educators, allied health professionals, disability support workers, employers, and other service providers to better understand and respond to sensory needs.
MYSET is available through a once-off payment, providing ongoing access to the associated forms and resources without additional subscription fees or ongoing costs.
Your MYSET purchase will contain...
The MYSET includes 83 illustrated cards, across three (3) core categories: Love/Hate sensory experiences, Seeking/Stimming, and Noticing Sensations. Together, the cards help individuals explore, identify, and communicate their unique sensory experiences, preferences, and feelings. To help guide the process, the kit includes sorting plates, guidance cards and what-to-do stories, rating scale poster, a detailed user manual and quick-start guide to support therapists and facilitators, and a resource booklet with practical tips, FAQs, suggested scripts, review forms, and reproducible templates for recording and planning. Additionally, the kit comes with a caregiver and educator version with an observation booklet and additional resources for these circumstances.
There are no ongoing costs for new forms or resources. Everything you need in one easily-bundled package at a one-time purchase price.
