One-on-one speech therapy sessions are available for children aged between 18 months to 12 years. Therapy sessions focus on developing a child’s overall communication skills and an individualised plan will be devised to address your child’s needs.

Speech and Language Therapy focuses on:

• Preverbal skills – such as eye contact, joint attention and using gestures.
• Receptive language – understanding what is said to them.
• Expressive language – using words and sentences, in a variety of different ways and for different purposes.
• Social communication – such as turn-taking, staying on topic and using non-verbal communication appropriately.
• Articulation and phonology – producing a full range of speech sounds and using them accurately.

A set of goals will be identified after the trial sessions.
