Prior to commencing therapy, 1-2 sessions are typically required to complete formal and informal assessments, to ensure we have all the necessary information to commence therapy.

The assessment procedure typically includes:

A discussion with parents or caregivers to gather detailed information about your child’s developmental milestones, speech, language, medical history, and school or learning experiences.

A formal and/or informal evaluation of your child’s current speech, language and/or feeding difficulties.

With consent, the Speech Pathologist may also reach out to other professionals involved in your child’s care to gather additional information.

Please note that if your child has had a Speech Pathology assessment within the last 12 months, we can use the results from the most recent report to set appropriate therapy goals alongside parents.
