I think my kid is more mild than yours (his is motor sensory and has a hard time sitting still for any task and was also manifesting in some anxiety/low confidence regarding physical tasks) but without trying to give any specific advice about your kid... He goes here[0] twice a week and it's expected they will help build coping skills in <1 year time. For us, there's also some tasks we practice at home; it's basically physical therapy. Maybe you can find a local analog.

We've been at it for about 3 months and changes are noticeable. We do also maintain a zero small screen policy, but that's always been the case. Probably more TV than is healthy but it's 110F out...
