Services

Assessment

We offer comprehensive speech pathology assessments and screening services to support each child’s unique communication journey.  An assessment allows us to gather detailed information about a child’s developmental history, strengths, areas of need and current concerns. This helps us develop an individualised therapy plan that is meaningful, goal-driven and tailored to your child’s communication needs.   

Therapy

We provide neurodiversity-affirming therapy that celebrates each child’s unique strengths and communication style. This includes speech, language, literacy in meaningful, everyday contexts.
