Our Services
-
An initial assessment is provided in order to gather a detailed profile of an individual’s communication skills. This provides us with valuable information to develop the right support or therapy approach for our client’s learning and development needs. We use a variety of different assessment methods to gather an in-depth understanding of our client’s needs. This includes conducting specialised tests and through play activities. We may provide a written report following each initial assessment
-
Depending on the outcome of the assessment, therapy may be recommended.
Therapy sessions are usually 30, 45 or 60 minutes in duration and are conducted on a weekly or fortnightly basis. Parent involvement in therapy sessions is encouraged to ensure that the appropriate follow-through is done at home.
