• Our approach

  Perth Speech Therapy uses a strengths-based, family-centred approach to help children overcome communication barriers and build confidence. Sessions are tailored to each child's specific needs using evidence-based methods including the Lidcombe Program for stuttering, PROMPT for speech production, Hanen strategies for language development, Sounds Write for literacy, and Talk 4 Writing for writing skills. The service provides a compassionate, safe learning environment with a clear plan of action. Children develop the tools and support they need to feel confident and happy communicating.

• Working with families

  Family engagement is at the heart of Perth Speech Therapy's approach, with involvement at every step of assessment and treatment. Parents and carers are taught evidence-based strategies to support their child's development, particularly through Hanen programs like "It Takes Two To Talk" for language development and "More Than Words" for children with autism or social communication difficulties. The service operates in a family-centred, holistic environment where your child's program is tailored according to your family's specific needs.
