Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we are registered with all major private health funds, however you should check with your fund to make sure you are covered for Speech Therapy. We do not use a HICAPS terminal for direct processing of rebates. Instead we will provide a receipt that you can use to claim your rebate.
Unfortunately it’s hard to estimate how long your child will require therapy. This will depends on the nature of your child’s communication difficulty. We will monitor and discuss their progress each session, and when your child is using speech and language at an age appropriate level we will stop therapy.
We are a mobile practice and offer speech therapy at your child’s child care centre, preschool, school, or at home. Please call or email us to make an enquiry.
