Who Will Be My Child's Speech Pathologist?
We are committed to your child’s success and will work with you to make sure your family is happy. You will see the same therapist every time you visit us at the clinic. This ensures that you and your family are familiar with the therapist responsible for your child’s communication journey. 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 worked with children of all age with language, speech or spelling difficulties.
The Therapists at Chatterbox are required to continue their education. They are required to attend professional development workshops so they can keep providing Chatterbox families the most up-to-date, research-based therapy.
