Speech Pathology Services
There are a broad spectrum of issues that our Speech Pathologist can help your child overcome. These cover the broad range of communication and learning skills such as:
- Articulation issues (clarity of speech);
- Stuttering;
- Difficulties learning to read;
- Comprehension and following instructions;
- Problems constructing meaningful sentences;
- Practical use of language (e.g. in social settings);
- Voice problems (e.g. too loud, intonation and pitch);
- Social communication differences related to brain style related differences in Autism and ADHD.
We provide comprehensive assessment for all facets of speech and language. From articulation, comprehension, social use of language, speech production and learning concerns such as dyslexia, our Speech Pathologist can identify and support your child’s needs. We also provide services to those children with developmental delay, intellectual impairment and neurodiversity.
If you have concerns with regards to your child’s communication or learning please contact us for an initial consultation. Our Speech Pathologist can help with all of the above and has many years working with children and families to achieve their communication goals.

Funding
Fees for speech pathology services vary, however we do accept referrals through the Helping Children with Autism Scheme, or those with a Chronic Disease Management Plan. Both of these referrals will afford you a rebate back from your sessions. This rebate varies and can be discussed at the time of payment.
You may also be eligible for rebates through your private health insurance, however it is best to check with them as to what you may received back from them (if anything).
If you are seeking NDIS services, we are happy to offer speech pathology services to those clients who are plan or self-managed.
