Our Services
Children develop communication skills at different rates. We provide assessment and therapy that is tailored to your child and your family’s priorities.
Early communication support is designed for babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children who may be late to develop language or need extra help building interaction and communication skills.
We use play-based, family-centred approaches and work closely with parents and caregivers so useful strategies can be carried into everyday routines. Therapy is positive, practical and designed to help children build confidence as communicators.
Our assessments begin with a detailed case history so we can understand your child’s development and your main concerns. Depending on your child’s age and needs, assessment may include observation, play-based interaction, language or speech sampling, and formal assessment where appropriate.
Assessment is conducted in a relaxed and supportive environment and is followed by a discussion of findings and personalised recommendations. Therapy goals are developed from the assessment findings and your priorities, with sessions designed to feel positive, achievable and engaging for your child.
Individualised Autism Spectrum Disorder assessment pathways are also available where appropriate. Please contact our team to discuss the assessment that best suits your child.
Language therapy supports children who have difficulty understanding language, expressing ideas, learning new words, forming sentences, following directions or telling stories.
We tailor therapy to each child’s developmental stage and communication profile. Goals may include vocabulary, grammar, comprehension, narrative skills and the ability to communicate ideas clearly and confidently at home, in learning environments and in the community.
Speech and language skills provide an important foundation for learning to read and write. We support children experiencing difficulty with early literacy, phonological awareness, reading, spelling and written language.
Therapy is individualised and practical, helping children strengthen the underlying language and sound-awareness skills they need to participate more confidently in classroom learning.
Social communication is about using communication effectively with other people. We support children to develop skills that may include conversation, understanding social situations, flexible communication, play and participation with others.
Our approach is strengths-based and respectful of neurodiversity. Goals are tailored to the individual child and focus on meaningful communication, confidence and participation rather than changing harmless differences in how a child communicates.
We provide assessment and therapy for children who stutter or experience other fluency differences. Our team includes clinicians trained in evidence-based approaches including the Lidcombe Program, RESTART-DCM, the CARE Model and speech restructuring techniques.
Therapy is tailored to the child’s age, experience and individual needs, with an emphasis on confident communication, family support and affirming practice.
Telehealth appointments provide families with the option to access speech pathology services remotely when appropriate. Sessions are delivered securely online and can be used for selected assessments, therapy and parent support.
Your therapist will discuss whether telehealth is suitable for your child’s goals and how to prepare for the session so it remains engaging and effective.
Home practice is an important part of therapy and helps children consolidate new skills in familiar environments. We keep home activities practical, enjoyable and achievable within the busy lives of families.
Individual clinic-based therapy is often weekly, but frequency and session length depend on the needs and goals of each child.
We work alongside Gymworks Occupational Therapy and Let’s Move Physiotherapy, allowing families to access a collaborative multidisciplinary environment and helping therapy goals work together when a child has multiple needs.
