SUPPORTING YOU THROUGH FAMILY-CENTRED CARE
Communication Is The Bridge That Unites Us Across Space
At its core, communication stands as an essential human right and so Reach for Mars Speech Pathology in Broadmeadows is committed to supporting children and their families with speech and language difficulties to realise their full potential.
HOW WE CAN HELP YOU
Individualised Intervention For Every Age
Speech Pathology
Our ‘Speechies’ offer evaluation and treatment in many areas including: articulation (clear speech), understanding of language (comprehension), verbal expression, social communication, fluency (stuttering), voice, literacy (reading and writing), play skills, early/pre-verbal communication and augmentative and alternative communication.
Assessments
We provide a variety of evaluations designed to pinpoint children's strengths and areas of improvement. This equips families with valuable information and assurance they need to set targeted goals and provide suitable assistance for their children. These goals can be implemented not only within the home environment but also effectively integrated into the child's educational setting, ensuring a comprehensive and supportive approach to their communication development.
Group Therapy
We offer group therapy including LEGO® Club which is a social development treatment program for children and teenagers diagnosed with Autism and other social communication differences. It uses children’s interest and motivation for playing with Lego® to help them develop communication and social skills. A school readiness group will be launching soon!
Telehealth
Our Speechies provide online therapy delivered to you in the comfort of your home or school. Apart from the convenience and flexibility, telehealth offers access to families in distant suburbs and remote areas.
Community Visits
We can visit your child at home, kinder, childcare, or at school in suburbs within Hume. To organise remote visits in other suburbs please contact us.
Reports
We offer assessment reports, NDIS review reports and letters of recommendation. We also compose letters for resources, devices and equipment support.
