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.

Developmental Screening and Comprehensive Assessments

Assessment services to evaluate speech, language, literacy, and feeding development in children aged 2-18 years.

Speech Pathology Therapy

Assessment and treatment of communication difficulties including speech sounds, language development, stuttering, voice, and feeding and swallowing. Speech pathologists work with children and adults to help them communicate clearly and confidently.

Dyslexia Support

Specialised support for children with dyslexia and literacy difficulties.

Autism Support

Ongoing therapeutic and practical support for autistic children and adults to build communication, social, daily living and self-regulation skills. Supports are tailored to the individual's strengths and goals and may be delivered across home, school and community settings.

Our approach

At The Soundmill Centre, therapy is grounded in evidence and guided by care, with a holistic, evidence-informed approach that supports communication, learning, emotional wellbeing, and confidence. Sessions are tailored to your child's strengths, needs, and stage of development, whether through individual therapy, school visits, or telehealth options. The team works alongside families to help children build communication skills and independence at home, at school, and in the community. Therapy is personalised based on what your child needs most, delivered with flexibility to fit your family's situation.

Working with families

The centre believes in working with families as partners, taking time to listen carefully to your concerns and explaining things clearly so you understand your child's needs and the plan ahead. Throughout the process, from initial contact through assessment and therapy, the team provides practical strategies for families and schools to support your child's progress at home and in learning environments. Communication is ongoing, with regular check-ins and planning for smooth transitions as goals are reached, ensuring you're always informed and involved in your child's journey.

Your first visit

Your first step is simply getting in touch with your questions or concerns—no referral is needed. The centre will then help you decide the best next step, which might be a screening assessment, a full assessment, or simple reassurance. During this process, the team takes time to listen carefully and explain things clearly so you understand what's happening. If therapy is recommended, they'll create a clear, personalised plan tailored to your child and family before moving forward.
