Personalised Therapy

I invest time in learning about my clients and families so that I am able to provide a personalised approach to therapy. Personalised approaches to therapy assist children to feel comfortable and motivates them to learn when their interests are continually threaded into their individualised therapy plans.

Evidence-Based Approach

I am passionate about providing assessment and therapy that is evidence based to ensure the best outcome for my clients. This includes dedicating time to professional development activities such as attending trainings, seminars and workshops as well as continuing to follow current research into all areas of Speech Pathology. I am a member of my professional association.

Fun and Engaging Sessions

It's no surprise that children learn best when they enjoy their learning experiences. I work hard to create fun and engaging sessions that will motivate and peak the interests of my clients. It's quite common to see construction, art, craft, cooking, games and even the occasional magic trick involved in my therapy sessions.
