How it works

Our sessions can be tailored to suit you and we like to vary our sessions between clinic, home visits, and school to ensure progress across environments. A travel fee will be added for sessions held outside of our clinics.

1. Consult

During this time we hear your concerns and observe you/your child’s communication skills. Together with our clients we then discuss what the best next step will be.
