Our Services
We provide comprehensive assessment services to accurately identify the nature and extent of a child's speech and language difficulties. This initial step is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan. Following assessment, our therapists deliver individualised therapy sessions designed to target specific goals. Our interventions are based on evidence-based practices and are tailored to the child's age, needs, and communication style.
We address a wide range of speech and language needs, including but not limited to:
Articulation and Phonology (difficulty producing speech sounds correctly) Receptive and Expressive Language (understanding and using spoken language) Fluency (stammering) Stuttering (stammering) Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) for children with complex communication needs Early language development concerns Social Communication SkillsOur Assessment Process
The assessment process begins with an initial conversation with parents or caregivers to understand the child's history and concerns. This is followed by a formal assessment session with the child, which may involve various activities designed to observe their communication skills in a supportive environment. We believe in a collaborative approach, sharing assessment findings and recommendations with parents/caregivers.
Our Therapy Approach
Therapy sessions are conducted one-on-one with the child, tailored to their specific needs and goals. We work closely with parents and caregivers, providing practical strategies and techniques they can support at home. Our goal is to empower children to reach their communication potential and build confidence in their ability to express themselves.
