  • Our approach

    Sessions are tailored to your child's needs and take place in familiar settings including home, school, telehealth, or the community to support progress while minimising disruption to daily life. The provider believes intervention should be a positive, engaging, and enjoyable experience for both children and their families. A range of services is offered including language, speech clarity, stuttering support, literacy, social communication, AAC (augmentative and alternative communication), play skills, and parent coaching. Each service is designed to help your child develop the specific communication skills they need, whether that's understanding and expressing language, improving speech clarity, building friendships, or developing reading and writing abilities. The provider works collaboratively with parents and carers as part of the intervention approach.

  • Working with families

    The provider works collaboratively with parents and carers through a parent coaching service, empowering you with skills to support your child's communication outside of sessions. Family involvement is built into the intervention philosophy, with the belief that intervention should be a positive and enjoyable experience for both children and their families. By offering flexible sessions in familiar settings like home and school, parents and carers are supported to be part of their child's communication journey.

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.
