(understanding what is heard or read)
- Expressive language
(using spoken and written language to express ideas)
- Articulation and phonology
(producing speech sounds clearly and accurately)
- Social communication
(interacting, connecting and communicating with others)
- Literacy
(reading, spelling and writing skills)
- AAC – Augmentative and Alternative Communication
(using alternative forms of communication, such as sign language, communication boards or speech-generating devices)
How our paediatric speech pathologists can help
We work closely with families, carers, teachers and other allied health professionals to ensure support is consistent across home, school and community settings. Our team uses a clientcentred, evidenceinformed approach to help children achieve meaningful communication outcomes.
We provide assessment and therapy for children with:
- Developmental disabilities and global developmental delay
- Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and Language Disorders
- Speech delays, speech sound disorders and Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)
- Early communication delays, including late talking
- Literacy difficulties, including reading and spelling challenges
Together, we’ll help your child develop the communication skills they need to learn, connect and participate confidently in everyday life.
