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?

Sessions are typically 30-60 minutes. The number depends on your child's goals; the pathologist will recommend a plan after the initial assessment.

What Accessible helps with

Paediatric Occupational Therapy

A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.

Speech Therapy

Assessment and treatment of communication difficulties including speech sounds, language development, stuttering, voice, and feeding and swallowing. Speech pathologists work with children and adults to help them communicate clearly and confidently.

Positive Behaviour Support

A therapy approach that reduces challenging behaviours by understanding what is driving them and building supportive routines, environments and skills, so a child can take part more fully at home, school and in the community.

Early Childhood Intervention

Support in the early years (usually under 7) that helps children with developmental delay or disability build communication, movement, social and everyday-living skills while their development is most responsive.

Support Work

Accommodation and daily living support for people with disability who need assistance to live as independently as possible. Support workers assist with personal care, household tasks, community participation and skill development.

Community Nursing Support

Delivers expert community nursing care tailored to meet unique needs, ensuring individuals can live safely and independently in their own homes.

High Intensity Daily Support Work

Provides specialized, compassionate support for NDIS participants with higher care needs to live safely, comfortably, and with greater independence.

Domestic Cleaning Support

Provides reliable, high-quality domestic household cleaning services to NDIS participants to maintain a clean, hygienic, and comfortable living environment.

Adult Occupational Therapy

Aged Care

Allied health and support services for older Australians to maintain independence, manage health conditions and participate in daily life. Services include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dietetics and social support, delivered at home or in residential aged care settings.

Our approach

Accessible Care uses a child-centred, strengths-based approach to paediatric occupational therapy, focusing on helping children build skills for everyday tasks through fun, play-based strategies that feel like games but are deeply therapeutic. Therapy is personalised to each child's age, abilities, goals, and environment, delivered in comfortable settings that suit the family. Sessions are designed around what matters most to the child and family, supporting confidence and independence in daily living and learning. The team tailors every approach individually, ensuring children progress at their own pace while their families remain at the heart of the care journey.

Working with families

Family involvement is central to Accessible Care's approach, with parents and carers treated as vital team members whose voice, choices, and goals guide all decisions. The provider communicates openly and clearly, keeping families informed and involved at every stage through regular updates, case conferences where families are always invited, and shared reports. Support is delivered in settings that feel comfortable and appropriate for the family, with flexible scheduling options including weekday, weekend, in-person, mobile, and telehealth sessions. The team works closely with families to organise and manage supports through reliable service delivery and transparent communication, making the NDIS journey easier to navigate.

Meet the team

The team at Accessible Care includes qualified occupational therapists, speech pathologists, behaviour support practitioners, support coordinators, and community nurses—all experienced allied health professionals with practical clinical expertise. Team members work collaboratively from a single shared care plan, communicating regularly through case conferences and ongoing updates to ensure everyone understands your child's complete picture and goals. Each professional brings specialised skills: occupational therapists help with daily living skills, speech pathologists support communication, and behaviour support practitioners guide positive strategies. The diverse team is trained in autism-informed and culturally respectful care, ensuring therapy is inclusive and responsive to your family's unique needs.

Your first visit

The first appointment begins with an in-depth discussion to understand your child's unique needs, strengths, and goals. The team conducts a holistic assessment to gather a clear picture of your child's abilities and what you want to achieve together. You and your family are central to this process, with your input shaping the direction of support from the very start. Based on this initial assessment, the team develops a personalised therapy plan tailored to your child's circumstances. The provider explains all costs during this consultation with no surprises, and works with you to arrange supports that suit your schedule and preferences.
