  • Our approach

    Olive Tree Speech Pathology uses a collaborative approach that involves both the therapist and the family in the therapeutic process. Sessions begin with detailed discussions to understand each child's needs and goals, followed by screening and clinical observations. The therapy is tailored based on assessment results, with the clinic providing education, guidance, and practical strategies that families can implement at home. This partnership model means parents and carers actively participate in supporting their child's development beyond clinic visits. The provider works flexibly with families to determine session frequency and location, which can include clinic-based sessions, school or childcare visits, or home-based therapy depending on what suits the child best.

  • Working with families

    Parents and carers are recognized as playing an essential role in their child's growth and development, and are actively involved throughout the therapeutic process. The clinic provides education, guidance, and practical strategies designed to be implemented at home, extending the child's learning beyond clinic sessions. This collaborative partnership approach aims to empower families to support their child's development independently. The clinic communicates with families about session frequency, location, and therapy plans, and discusses whether ongoing therapy is needed based on assessment outcomes. Families are encouraged to share previous reports and referrals at the outset to inform the therapy approach.

  • Your first visit

    The first appointment is an initial consultation where the therapist meets with the parent, caregiver, and child to build a detailed understanding of the child's needs, goals, and background. The session includes screening and clinical observations to assess the child's strengths and areas for support. Before attending, you'll be asked to complete an intake form and are encouraged to bring or email any previous reports, paediatrician letters, or referrals that may be relevant. Following the initial consultation, a summary report can be provided if requested, which outlines the child's strengths and weaknesses, assessment results, recommendations, and a therapy plan. This report also determines whether ongoing therapy is needed and how frequently sessions should occur for best results.

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.
