AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication)
We specialize in providing tailored AAC support to individuals with complex communication needs, offering a wide range of tools including communication boards, speech-generating devices, and apps. Our goal is to help non-verbal clients or those with limited speech find effective ways to express themselves, improving their independence and quality of life.
Social Communication Skills
Speech & Language Support
Whether helping a child develop clear speech sounds or supporting an adult who has lost their ability to speak due to a stroke or injury, we offer therapy designed to improve articulation, language comprehension, and expressive language. Our work encompasses phonology, syntax, and semantics, building strong foundations for effective communication.
Parent Coaching
We empower parents and caregivers with strategies to support their child’s communication development in everyday routines. By focusing on practical, real-life situations, we help parents build confidence in fostering their child’s speech and language skills, ensuring progress continues beyond therapy sessions. Personalised 1:1 coaching is available for parents and caregivers, particularly for those whose children may not be suitable for telehealth. Drawing from experience in a transdisciplinary model, we provide guidance on toilet training, sensory education, and effective home strategies to create a supportive environment for your child.
Swallowing Assessments & Therapy
We conduct comprehensive assessments for individuals experiencing swallowing difficulties, providing tailored treatment plans to enhance safety and comfort during meals. Our dysphagia services include mealtime management strategies, exercises to strengthen the swallowing muscles, and recommendations for diet modifications when necessary.
Aphasia Therapy
For individuals who have experienced a stroke or brain injury, aphasia can significantly impact communication. We provide therapy aimed at improving language comprehension, verbal expression, reading, and writing skills. Our personalised plans focus on enhancing the ability to communicate effectively in daily life.
Telehealth sessions
We offer remote speech pathology services via telehealth, ensuring you receive high-quality, evidence-based therapy no matter your location. This flexible service is ideal for clients with busy schedules, those in remote areas, or anyone who prefers the convenience of home-based care.
