  • Our approach

    READ Literacy Centre combines cutting-edge technology with evidence-based intervention to support children with dyslexia and learning disorders. Sessions are tailored through comprehensive diagnostic assessments that examine reading, writing, language, literacy and cognitive processing. Therapy is delivered individually or in small groups, with both clinic-based and telehealth options available to suit each child's needs. The speech pathologists also work closely with teachers and families through consultancy services, seminars and workshops to ensure consistent support across settings. This integrated approach means each child receives a personalised intervention plan designed specifically for their learning profile.

  • Working with families

    The speech pathologists involve families through multiple pathways including individual consultancy, parent seminars and workshops designed to build understanding and skills. Parents are included in the comprehensive assessment process and receive individualised intervention plans that guide therapy goals. The centre also offers one-on-one training to help parents support their child's learning at home, ensuring families have the knowledge and tools to reinforce progress outside of sessions.

  • Your first visit

The assessment can be conducted at the clinic in Taringa or via telehealth depending on your preference. Following this thorough evaluation, the speech pathologists develop an individualised intervention plan tailored to your child's specific needs. This initial assessment forms the foundation for all future therapy, ensuring treatment targets the right areas to support your child's learning.

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.
