Paediatric Speech Therapist in Rosehill
Who will be my child’s speech pathologist and who will I ask?
We are committed to your child’s success and will work with you to make sure your family is happy. 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 will allow the therapist to learn how your child learns and changes as they grow.
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 must attend Professional Development Workshops to keep their skills current and provide Chatterbox family members with the best research-based therapy.
Speech Pathologists are specifically trained to evaluate and treat communication skills in children.
Don’t wait. Early intervention has been proven to help children achieve their best both now and for later success. These difficulties don’t simply ‘go away”. These problems are not due to your child being lazy. Your child might be starting to avoid situations in which they need to talk or getting frustrated when they have homework to do.
This is because it is simply hard for them. A parent does not cause their child to have these difficulties, however a parent who has found the right advice and support can help their child to achieve success.
