Speech and Language Pathology with Therapy Pro

Our speech and language pathologists go by many names. In Australia, they can also be known as speech therapists, speech pathologists, speech and language therapists, or even ‘speechies’! 

What they all have in common, however, is a vast array of experience that equips them to support a wide range of communication and feeding disorders. 

We provide education for our clients and the people who support them as well as the highest standard of care to achieve lasting outcomes.

Here are some of what our highly skilled Speech and Language Pathologists team can do:

  • Provide ongoing therapy to improve our clients’ speech, language, fluency, literacy and voice
  • Help individuals who experience difficulties swallowing food and drink by adapting the types of food they eat, as well as teaching techniques that enable safe swallowing
  •  Support people who are unable to use words or sounds to form speech, or who may use non-verbal communication tools to express thoughts, intentions and needs
  • Work with people with autism, intellectual disability, developmental delays, losses occurring after a stroke or brain injury, learning disabilities, cerebral palsy, dementia or hearing loss
  •  Facilitate training for families and carers that improves the individual’s swallowing and/or communication, including use of the Sequenced Oral Sensory Program for feeding, communication app training (such as Proloquo2go), or the use of specific communication techniques and strategies

Frequently Asked Questions

This will generally take up to an hour, with the structure depending on the individual circumstances, age of the client and goal of the overall assessment. We’ll do a detailed case history and review the client’s current communication skills. This will allow us to devise individual therapy goals based on specific needs and desired outcomes. A comprehensive assessment of the client’s speech and language skills would usually be completed over 2-3 sessions.

A swallowing assessment will include a case history, with our speech pathologist assessing the face and mouth muscles of the client. This is followed by an observation of the client eating or drinking particular foods that they recommend. This allows us to then suggest food/drink modifications, as well as eating strategies.

We pride ourselves in being able to offer Speech and Language Pathology across Australia via our industry-leading telehealth platform.
Alongside that, our in-person coverage includes (but is not limited to, and is ever growing) the list below:
