Welcome to Everlasting Health Services

Ready to start your child's speech pathology journey? Contact us by email or phone to schedule a brief initial call. We'll discuss your child's needs and answer your questions. Afterward, we'll send you intake forms to complete.

Your child's first appointment may include a comprehensive communication assessment and a case history questionnaire to help us understand their needs and create an effective, individualised plan.

Based on this assessment, we'll develop a personalised therapy plan tailored to their specific goals. This plan will be regularly reviewed and adjusted as your child progresses, ensuring they continue to receive the most effective support.

If therapy is recommended, we'll work with you to create a regular session schedule that fits your family's needs. We believe that family involvement is crucial, so we'll encourage your participation in sessions and provide you with practical strategies to use at home, maximising the impact of therapy

Throughout the process, we'll regularly review your child's progress at the end of an intervention cycle and adjust the therapy plan and approach as needed to ensure they are receiving the most effective and evidenced based support.

To ensure your child's skills generalise beyond the therapy room, we'll provide you with targeted home practice activities and strategies. These will help them confidently use their new communication skills in a variety of everyday settings, maximising the impact of their therapy.

Language refers to both receptive language (how well a child understands language) and expressive language (how a child uses language to communicate) skills which are essential for communication, learning, and social interaction.

We provide targeted literacy intervention using the Sounds-Write program, a structured approach that develops a child's phonological awareness skills (e.g., blending, segmenting and phoneme manupulation) for reading and spelling success.

We help children who stutter, or experience other fluency difficulties develop strategies for smoother speech, so they can communicate with greater ease and confidence.

For children with communication challenges, we offer a range of AAC options, including Key Word Sign Australia and high-tech devices. Our goal is to empower children to communicate effectively and participate fully in their world by providing them with access to total communication.

Speech pathologists target the precise movements of the mouth, tongue, and other articulators needed for clear speech production. We also work on phonological processes, which are patterns of sound errors, to improve overall speech clarity and intelligibility (ability to be understood).

We help children develop their social communication skills to build stronger connections with peers, family, and their community. Our approach focuses on understanding social cues, conversation skills, self-advocacy, perspective-taking, friendships, and asking for help. We use neurodiversity-affirming practices to create a safe and supportive learning environment.
