  • Our approach

    CPEC uses a collaborative team approach (Physiotherapist, Occupational Therapist, Speech Pathologist, Clinical Mentor) to actively problem-solve ways to embed therapy into everyday life at home, school or in the community. The service focuses on supporting the whole person to live life on their own terms and empowering children, adults and families. Community education is a major focus, with the team working together to teach healthy life patterns and help individuals become active participants. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs, with therapy integrated into meaningful daily activities rather than isolated clinic-based work.

  • Working with families

Community education is a major focus of the service, with an emphasis on educating families and teaching healthy life patterns. The team works with families to embed therapy into everyday life in home, school and community settings. Parents and carers are supported as partners in the therapy process.

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.
