  • Our approach

    At Words and Wellbeing, therapy is built on a holistic, transformative and empowering philosophy where every word counts and wellbeing takes precedence. The provider uses customised approaches tailored to each person's specific needs and objectives. Sessions involve a mix of formal and informal assessments, clinical observations, and various activities and functional tasks designed to address communication or swallowing concerns. Therapy typically consists of weekly or fortnightly 60-minute sessions, with 45 minutes of direct interaction and 15 minutes for documentation. These sessions take place either at home via telehealth or at the Herston practice location.

  • Your first visit

    During your first visit, the Speech Pathologist will discuss any communication or swallowing issues you're experiencing and what goals you'd like to achieve. Together, you'll explore your history and the reasons for seeking speech pathology services. This appointment is tailored to identify your needs through a mix of formal and informal assessments as well as clinical observations to better understand your situation. Based on this comprehensive assessment, the Speech Pathologist will prepare a detailed report and design a personalised therapy program aimed at meeting your specific needs and objectives.
