Our approach

Sessions at Merewether Speech Pathology focus on identifying your child's communication strengths and weaknesses through a combination of play-based observations, family discussion, and formal testing. The team believes that experience counts and aims to provide a happy, supportive and flexible approach so families feel comfortable and welcome. Therapy plans are tailored to your child's needs, with the number and frequency of sessions discussed with you. Home and school practice activities are provided to support progress between sessions, and the team works closely with teachers and childcare staff to ensure your child receives coordinated support from their full team.

Working with families

The team believes in working closely with families and carers to achieve communication goals. Parents are involved in the initial assessment through discussion about their child's communication, and home and school practice activities are provided to support therapy progress. The team actively liaises with teachers and childcare staff to develop coordinated strategies, and the therapy plan—including session frequency and number—is discussed directly with families to ensure you remain a central part of your child's support team.

Your first visit

At an initial visit, an assessment is conducted to determine your child's communication strengths and weaknesses. This may involve observations during play, discussion with you and other carers such as teachers, as well as formal standardized testing. A detailed report is provided with a plan and recommendations tailored to your child's needs. The plan for therapy, including the number and frequency of sessions, will then be discussed with your family to ensure everyone is aligned on the next steps forward.
