Do I need a referral to see a speech pathologist?
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?
Sessions are typically 30-60 minutes. The number depends on your child's goals; the pathologist will recommend a plan after the initial assessment.
