Telehealth

At Little Hens Speech Pathology, we believe that everyone should have access to quality speech therapy. That’s why we offer Telehealth services for clients who live outside our serviced areas, those who are on holiday, or families who have relocated interstate.

Home visits

We believe in the importance of accessing therapy services in a client's natural environment. Home visits are a key part of this approach, as they allow families to practice therapy strategies in the comfort of their own home, promoting greater success in generalizing skills to everyday life.

Kindergarten Visits

Kindergarten visits are available for ongoing therapy sessions, as well as one-off observation sessions and meetings with school staff
