How we help
Every child is different, so we tailor therapy to your child. Sessions mix play with more structured activities, chosen to suit how your child learns best.
We keep language learning fun and meaningful, so your child can grow their communication skills in a supportive place.
Who we see
We help children who are late to talk, have trouble understanding or following instructions, or find it hard to put words into sentences or tell a story in order. This includes children with developmental language disorder (DLD), global developmental delay, autism, or hearing loss.
Language skills underpin learning at school, so we can share goals with your child's teacher. We also complete assessments for Language Development Centre applications.
