Online Speech Therapy for Children

Yes. Young children often respond especially well to online sessions—especially when they’re in a familiar environment. For this age group, therapy is focused on parent coaching, so you’ll play an active role in helping your child develop early communication skills through play, routines and everyday moments.

Sessions are designed to be short, fun and interactive. We use songs, toys, visuals, and tools like virtual backgrounds to keep your child interested—plus we’re trained in leading programs like Hanen®, which work beautifully via video.

Your therapist will get to know your child, assess their needs, and start building a tailored therapy plan. You’ll join the session too, so we can talk through your goals and answer any questions.

We’ll use fun, interactive tools—like games, visuals and props—to help your child feel comfortable and engaged. If your child is very young, we’ll guide you in how to support their progress between sessions.

You’ll leave the appointment with a clear understanding of where your child is at—and what to do next.

In many ways, it isn’t! You’ll still receive:

• Therapy from a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist (CPSP) registered with Speech Pathology Australia
• Personalised, evidence-based therapy plans tailored to your child’s goals
• Access to leading therapy methods including Lidcombe, Camperdown, Hanen, PEERS, Sounds-Write and more
• The same high standards in planning, delivery, and clinical care as you’d expect in any in-person setting
  
  

And of course—no waiting rooms or travel.

It’s simple. All you need is:

• A stable internet connection
• A quiet, well-lit space
• A computer, tablet or smartphone
  

If your child is used to having a parent or carer present during therapy, we recommend joining the session with them. If you'd like more tips, check out our article on preparing for your first session.

All you need is a device (computer, tablet or smartphone) with internet access. A headset can help improve sound quality, but it’s optional.

We use secure, confidential and easy-to-use video conferencing software. Most families are set up and ready to go within minutes.

Not a problem. As long as there’s someone who can assist (like a parent, teacher or carer), we can work with them too.

For these clients, therapy often involves coaching the communication partner to help deliver activities and strategies. It’s still effective, supportive and personalised.

Yes. If you have funding under Capacity Building – Improved Daily Living, your sessions with us are fully covered under the NDIS. No out-of-pocket expenses.
