Services I offer

I carry out assessments, provide comprehensive written reports and offer therapy.

Need some help?
I have a home based clinic consisting of a therapy room, small waiting room and bathroom. I aim to keep my fees low as I understand the financial burden that many families face and I want my services to be affordable for everyone. I offer the following services:

Articulation Assessment
   
For children who have difficulty pronouncing speech sounds and whose speech is unclear. A written report is provided.

Early Language Assessment
  
Informal assessment for young children 2-4 years of age. I will assess your child's language development by observing them during play and talking with you about your concerns. I will assess whether there is an underlying problem affecting your child's speech and language development and will then discuss therapy options with you. A written report is provided.

Formal Language Assessment
  
For preschool and school aged children. A formal language test is administered to determine if your child presents with a language delay and to outline your child's strengths and weaknesses. A comprehensive written report is provided.

Therapy sessions
Therapy is available on a weekly or fortnightly basis. Homework is provided during therapy and I demonstrate and discuss ideas and games to develop your child's speech and/or language skills at home.

    $75 for 30 minute session
    
Cancellation Fees
If you are unable to attend a session for whatever reason, you will still be required to pay for the session up front but you will be offered a 'make up' session. This may require coming on a different day or at a different time, coming for a 1 hour session or coming during the school holidays. This policy is in place as I have limited therapy times available and a waiting list. Please be assured that I will try my best to offer therapy sessions that are convenient to you and I am very understanding of busy family schedules and family commitments but in order to see progress in therapy and for me to provide a quality service to you, it is important that you attend on a regular basis.
