Our Services
At SLP Therapy & Me, we provide community-based therapy, delivering support in environments where clients feel most comfortable—whether at home, school, childcare, or in the community. Our approach ensures therapy is meaningful, practical, and tailored to real-life situations. We offer a range of services to support communication and development, including:
1
Assessments
We offer comprehensive assessments for speech, language, orofacial myofunctional skills, and other communication abilities. Assessments help identify strengths and challenges, guiding individualised therapy plans. Whether evaluating speech clarity, language comprehension, oral function, or overall communication, we tailor each assessment to the client’s needs and goals.
3
Reports
Reports can be provided for various purposes, including doctor referrals, NDIS funding applications, NDIS plan reviews, and therapy progress tracking. Reports are detailed and individualized, outlining assessment findings, therapy recommendations, and goal progress. Report writing times vary and will be discussed with parents before proceeding.
2
Individualised Therapy
Therapy is designed to be engaging, goal-oriented, and tailored to each individual. Sessions may focus on areas such as speech sounds, language development, literacy, social skills, AAC, orofacial myofunctional therapy, and more. Every therapy plan is structured to meet the client’s unique strengths and challenges, ensuring meaningful progress.
4
Communication & Collaboration
We believe in a team-based approach and actively communicate with therapists, teachers, doctors, educators, and other professionals involved in a client’s care. This may include emails, phone consultations, or parent-training sessions to support consistency across different environments and help clients apply their skills in daily life.
Session Duration & Structure
Initial Assessments: These are typically 90 minutes, including a comprehensive evaluation of areas of concern, including speech, language, orofacial function, fluency and communication needs.
Therapy Sessions: Available in 30-minute, 45-minute or 60-minute options, depending on individual goals, attention levels, and therapy needs.
Documentation: Each therapy session includes 5-10 minutes for note-taking to track progress, document parent and client reports, and update therapy goals. This ensures accurate record-keeping and allows for tailored session planning. These notes help monitor improvements over time and support continuity of care, particularly when collaborating with families, educators, and other professionals.
Reports: If a formal report is required (e.g., for doctors, NDIS funding applications, or NDIS plan reviews), it will be discussed with parents in advance. Report writing typically takes between 2 to 4+ hours, depending on the level of detail needed.
