Frequently Asked Questions

What is speech therapy?

Speech therapy can be a life-changing treatment for someone with a communication difficulty. It is an evidence-based clinical programme in which you or your child is supported to improve and develop aspects of their communication to become more effective and confirdent communicators. Our sessions are neurodiversity affirming, play-based and child-led, and are lots of fun.

Do I/does my child need speech therapy?

As an adult, it is up to you to decide to come to speech therapy if you feel you need it. You may find that people are having trouble understanding you, you are having trouble getting information across, or a health professional or someone close to you may have suggested it. For children, there are some great milestones that can be monitored to keep an eye on how your child’s speech is developing on “Mommy Speech” - http://mommyspeechtherapy.com/?p=82 It is important to remember not to panic if your child does not appear to have reached the milestone that this says that should have, these are considered “typical” but all children are different. Give us a call if you are concerned about any of these.

Do I need a referral?

We welcome referrals from the individual with a communication concern, the caregiver of a child with a communication difficulty, school/preschool teachers, GPs, audiologists, and other health professionals.

How long will I/my child need Speech Therapy for?

All clients present so differently, and the amount of therapy depends on many factors. Chat to your therapist for more information.

How often will I/my child need to attend Speech Therapy?

Most clients opt for two 30-minute treatment sessions per week. Some clients may choose to attend therapy at a higher or lower frequency than this, depending on many factors. Your therapist will guide you with what might suit you and your child best.

I/my child gets anxious about going to unfamiliar places. How can this anxiety be eased?

We offer sessions in the comfort of your own home, or in your child’s school/preschool. Contact us now to book a home or school appointment. Alternatively, chat to one of our therapists about getting some photos of the clinic space, resources and people that your child might be working with, to help familiarise them before the session.
