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.

What Therapy helps with

Psychology (Registered Psychologist)

Mental health support provided by registered psychologists for conditions including anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, autism, ADHD, and other psychological concerns.

Clinical Psychology

Assessment and therapy provided by a registered psychologist to support mental health, emotional wellbeing and behaviour. Psychologists work across the lifespan — helping children, adolescents and adults understand and manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma and learning differences.

Counselling

A talking-based support that helps people work through emotional difficulties, relationship challenges, grief, stress or mental health concerns. A counsellor listens without judgement and helps you develop coping strategies and a clearer sense of direction.

Speech Pathology

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.

Behaviour Support

A therapy approach that reduces challenging behaviours by understanding what is driving them and building supportive routines, environments and skills, so a child can take part more fully at home, school and in the community.

Early Intervention

Support in the early years (usually under 7) that helps children with developmental delay or disability build communication, movement, social and everyday-living skills while their development is most responsive.

Anxiety & Panic Disorders Treatment

Evidence-based treatment including CBT and exposure therapy for anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias.

Depression & Mood Disorders Treatment

Compassionate support for depression, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related challenges.

Trauma & PTSD Treatment

Evidence-based therapy to help individuals who have experienced trauma — including abuse, accidents or adverse childhood experiences — process distressing memories and reduce their ongoing impact. Approaches include EMDR, trauma-focused CBT and somatic therapies.

Autism & ADHD Treatment

Evidence-based treatment for autism and ADHD including CBT and exposure therapy approaches.

Relationship & Family Counselling

Couples therapy, parenting support, and family counselling services.

Our approach

Therapy Near Me uses evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to each child's needs and goals. Sessions may draw on established methods such as CBT, ACT, trauma-informed care, behavioural strategies, exposure-based approaches, mindfulness-based strategies and DBT-informed skills, depending on clinical suitability. Treatment approach, session format and specific goals are discussed with the practitioner and depend on the child's age, presenting concerns (such as anxiety, emotional regulation, school-related stress, behaviour or social challenges), family involvement needs and practitioner scope. Parent and carer involvement is often recommended, with the specific level depending on the child's age, goals and clinical needs.

Working with families

Parent and carer involvement is often recommended and depends on the child's age, goals and clinical needs. Therapy Near Me collaborates closely with families, carers, support coordinators and other providers to help children commence services quickly and receive practical, goal-aligned support. Where appropriate, the service provides coordinated communication with families and support teams. The practitioner will discuss the level and nature of family involvement as part of developing a treatment plan tailored to the child's situation.

Meet the team

Therapy Near Me's team includes AHPRA-registered psychologists, accredited counsellors, behaviour support practitioners and speech therapists. All team members are fully insured and police-checked to ensure high standards of care. Psychologists hold qualifications ranging from master's degrees in clinical psychology to PhDs, with experience spanning youth services, trauma-informed care, NDIS support, autism and ADHD. Behaviour support practitioners include Board Certified Behaviour Analysts (BCBA) and practitioners with diplomas in counselling and specialised training. The team works collaboratively within their qualifications, registration and scope of practice, with some practitioners holding additional roles such as Board-Approved Supervisor status.

Your first visit

The first session focuses on understanding the child's situation and goals. The practitioner will explain their recommended approach and develop a plan tailored to the child. Before the first appointment, the intake team asks about the child's goals, location, preferred appointment format (telehealth, in-clinic or at-home where available), funding type and any practitioner preferences to help identify a suitable option. This clear intake process ensures the service is matched to the family's circumstances and clinical needs.
