Our approach
Cara brings a calm and empathetic approach to speech pathology, creating a safe and caring environment where children and families feel supported. Sessions are tailored to address a diverse range of communication needs, from speech sound disorders and stuttering to language development and literacy. The practice uses evidence-based programs including the Nuffield Dyspraxia Programme and Hanen approaches for language development, along with specialised training in areas like Childhood Apraxia of Speech and the Lidcombe program for stuttering. Whether delivered in the clinic or through mobile services, therapy is designed to work alongside families as they navigate the assessment and therapy process together.
