Speech Pathology

Our Speech Pathology Service

Everyone has the right to communicate and be understood, and our job is to support our clients with this – whatever that looks like for them.

 

We believe in holistic, client-centred and evidence-based care. With more than 50 years’ combined experience, our seven-strong team of Speech Pathologists work closely with families, carers, allied health and education providers to consider a client’s overall needs and maintain consistent goals and strategies.

Speech Pathology builds skills & knowledge around:

  • LanguageThe words that we understand and use, and the way we construct sentences.
  • SpeechThe sounds we use to form words.
  • VoiceHow we use body parts such as the larynx to make the sounds we need to communicate.
  • FluencyOur speed and confidence in communicating.
  • Augmentative/Alternative Communication – Also known by the acronym AAC, these include strategies and tools to supplement or replace spoken languages.
