Assessment and therapy sessions take place in either your home or child’s early childhood centre or school.
During the initial assessment session, I will discuss with you your concerns regarding your child’s communication and take a full case history. Depending on the age of your child I will observe them and play or chat to them to get an idea of their communication skills. If necessary a formal assessment can be carried out. Following the assessment we will decide if your child needs therapy.
I work with parents and caregivers to decide the best therapy goals for each individual child.
I will give you a one page written summary of the assessment. A full report can be provided at an additional cost.
I try to make therapy sessions as much fun as possible by using toys and games. I will try to incorporate your child’s interests into the sessions.
I can attend planning meetings for your child at school or kindy if required. Am happy to liaise with any other professionals involved with your child.
