  • Our approach

    Therapy at Hinterland Children's Therapy combines play-based, evidence-informed approaches set in a peaceful, nature-rich environment on the clinic's acreage. Sessions focus on the child's individual goals—emotional, social, physical, and cognitive—with therapists building trusting relationships and allowing children to lead activities at their own comfortable pace. The clinic uses specialist equipment like Pilates machines and sports equipment, along with outdoor spaces by the creek and paddocks to encourage natural movement and exploration. Therapy feels like play rather than formal clinical work, with the setting's animals, fresh air, and calm atmosphere providing motivation and sensory regulation. The aim is to make therapy fun, meaningful, and empowering for each child while supporting parents with practical tools and strategies they can use at home.

  • Working with families

    Parental involvement is an essential component of therapy at Hinterland Children's Therapy. Parents and carers play a crucial role in supporting their child's progress and translating what they learn in therapy into everyday life at home. Therapists collaborate with families to provide guidance on parenting techniques, suggestions for promoting emotional wellbeing, and strategies to address challenges that may be affecting the child. The clinic works with families to understand their individual circumstances and involves them in planning therapy that aligns with their child's needs and family dynamics.

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.
