Speech Pathology services
Northside Speech provides professional assessments and healthcare interventions for communication difficulties.
Assessment
Communication difficulties are common, but some types of difficulties can be hidden.
Supports
We offer evidence-based healthcare supports for people who experience communication difficulties.
Assistive Technology
We can assess and prescribe AAC solutions for those who may benefit from them.
Building Skills
Together
We work together with families to help maximise communication and feeding outcomes for the whole family.
Our Values
Northside Speech is committed to providing empathetic and effective care to those with communication and feeding difficulties.
Family-centred
We recognise that children thrive when the family is supported.
Building Capacity
We work with the end in sight, helping families learn the skills they need to no longer rely on services.
Collaborative
We work in partnership with families and with other providers.
Effective
We provide interventions in line with current research in the field. We monitor interventions closely to ensure they are effective.
Supporting Real Communication
We support people to communicate the things they want to say. We understand that real communication can be messy or informal: we help to ensure it is effective and is understood.
However You Communicate
We value and support all types of language: spoken, written, signed, and those who communicate in other ways.
We support people to use both English and other languages spoken by the family.
the best thing
about being a speech pathologist
"The best part of my job is when a young person makes themselves understood for the first time. There's a beautiful moment where the parent hears them and understands "that's what you've been trying to tell me - that's what's important to you" and you can see the connection between parent and child."
