For those with limited verbal speech, we are experts in AAC. We assess, prescribe, and implement low-tech and high-tech communication devices to ensure every client has a way to express their needs and wants.
Literacy & Phonological Awareness
Strong speech skills lay the foundation for reading and writing. We support children with literacy challenges, including dyslexia and reading difficulties. By targeting Phonological Awareness (understanding sounds in words), we help bridge the gap between speaking and reading, ensuring academic success alongside communication goals.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you provide NDIS speech therapy?
Yes, daar is a registered NDIS provider. We offer NDIS speech therapy for participants who are self-managed, plan-managed, and NDIA-managed. We can support you with funding for NDIS for kids (early childhood) as well as therapeutic supports for school-aged children and adults.
Do I need a referral to see a Speech Pathologist?
No, a doctor's referral is not strictly required to access private speech pathology services at daar. However, if you are planning to claim rebates through Medicare (such as a Chronic Disease Management Plan), you will need a referral from your GP. NDIS participants do not need a medical referral to use their funding.
How long does speech therapy take?
The duration of therapy varies greatly depending on the diagnosis and severity. Some children with mild speech sound errors may only need a block of 10 sessions, while complex needs like Social Communication challenges or Apraxia of Speech may require ongoing, long-term support. Your Speech Pathologist will discuss a projected timeline with you after the initial assessment.
