  • Our approach

    Therapy focuses on helping children overcome speech, language, and communication difficulties through personalised interventions tailored to individual needs. Sessions are collaborative journeys that work closely with families and caregivers, providing children with practice to improve targeted communication goals. The approach encompasses a wide range of areas including speech clarity, stuttering, language comprehension and expression, voice, reading and writing skills, and feeding difficulties. Therapy can be the foundation for children to learn new skills and develop confidence through improved communication. Sessions are available in-person or online to make support accessible.

  • Working with families

    Therapy is positioned as a collaborative journey that works closely with families and caregivers, emphasising that children receive necessary practice with family assistance to improve targeted communication goals. The provider offers individual, couples, and family therapy sessions and emphasises working "with assistance from families and carers" as a core part of the therapeutic process. Parents have the opportunity to meet with the therapist during Enquiry Consultations to discuss their child's needs and expectations before formal assessment begins.

  • Your first visit

    The first step typically involves an Enquiry Consultation, where parents discuss their child's case history, developmental concerns, and assessment expectations while meeting the therapist. The Enquiry Consultation fee is refundable when you book and complete an Initial Consultation. The subsequent assessment is an important part of determining the best path to support the child's wellbeing, enabling the speech pathologist to problem-solve why a child is experiencing difficulties and create a plan with individualised goals. Assessments can also be integral to the diagnostic process for conditions such as autism, specific language impairment, or dyslexia.
