  • Our approach

    Ability Action Australia delivers evidence-based therapeutic supports tailored to each participant's goals and needs. Sessions combine face-to-face time with the clinician and non-face-to-face time spent on preparation, documentation and sharing updates with your support network. The organisation works collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team of health professionals with different skills to support as many of your needs as possible. Clinicians can work with you at one of their clinic locations, in your home, in the community, or via telehealth. The approach focuses on understanding your unique needs and delivering the outcomes you desire.

  • Working with families

    Parents and carers are actively involved in the support process. Clinicians share updates with your support network as part of their non-face-to-face time, and work to involve family members in understanding strategies and goals. The Key Worker Model for early childhood support is highlighted as particularly effective, with clinicians identifying areas of concern, helping families navigate complex service systems, and empowering parents to support their child's development and independence.

  • Meet the team

    Ability Action Australia employs occupational therapists, speech pathologists, physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, psychologists, behaviour support practitioners and early childhood specialists.

Clinicians deliver localised expertise across more than 300 locations across Australia.

Do I need a referral to see a speech pathologist?

No referral is needed to see one privately. You only need a GP referral if you want to access Medicare rebates or are going through certain funded pathways.

Is speech therapy covered by the NDIS?

It can be, usually under Capacity Building / Improved Daily Living, if it aligns with your child's plan goals. Check your plan or ask your support coordinator.

At what age should we see a speech pathologist?

There's no "too early." If you have concerns about your child's talking or understanding at any age, an assessment can clarify whether support would help.

How long are sessions and how many will we need?

Session length varies between clinics and services, so check it with the provider when you book. The number depends on your child's goals; the pathologist will recommend a plan after the initial assessment.
