The speech pathologists working at Allied Therapies Group Northside each have more than 10 years of clinical experience. We are all members of Speech Pathology Australia and are Certified Practising Speech Pathologists.
We tailor our approach for each client taking into account their different needs and circumstances. We seek to liaise with families, teachers and other professionals to ensure we develop a holistic plan. We work with a wide range of clients and abilities and use evidence-based strategies and programs.
You can request an appointment with a particular speech pathologist or we can direct you to the most appropriate staff member for your needs.
To make an appointment please email us at: speech@northsydneytherapy.com.au
No doctor’s referral is needed. We are registered providers with Medicare and clients referred under the Chronic Disease Management through their GP are eligible for rebates. Some clients may be able to claim rebates through their private health fund. We also work clients who have NDIS funding and are self or plan-managed.
We provide services for infants through to adults. Individual sessions are developed for each client to target specific areas including:
- receptive and expressive language
- reading and spelling
- writing
- speech clarity
- speech fluency/stuttering
- feeding and swallowing
- auditory perception
- voice
- school entry skills
- social skills
- accent modification
Sessions are conducted in the clinic or, by arrangement, at preschools, schools and workplaces.
Intensive daily sessions and small groups can be provided during school holidays.
