Who will my child's speech therapist be?
We care about you and your family. We want your child to reach his or her full potential. Each time you visit our clinic, you will see the same therapist. This will allow your child and their family to become acquainted with the therapist that will be leading your child’s journey through communication. This also means the therapist will become familiar with how your child learns as their skills change and develop.
All of our therapists have a university degree at a minimum and are members of our professional body, Speech Pathology Australia. Our therapists have extensive experience working with children with communication difficulties, such as language, speech, spelling, stuttering, and social skills.
Our Therapists must continue to update their skills. They are required to attend professional development workshops so they can keep providing Chatterbox families the most up-to-date, research-based therapy.
