NDIS · Speech pathology
NDIS speech pathology in Goulburn.
Our Goulburn speech pathologists work with NDIS participants on communication and swallowing — early language delay, speech sound difficulties, stuttering, and communication after stroke or brain injury. Plan-managed and self-managed participants can book straight in; if the NDIA manages your plan, we check where we stand for your situation before we confirm. Every course of therapy starts with an assessment against the goals already in your plan.
How it works
NDIS-funded speech pathology, step by step.
Check how your plan is managed
Plan-managed and self-managed participants can book straight in. If the NDIA manages your plan, we check where we stand as a registered provider for your situation before your first appointment.
Sign a short service agreement
Before your first appointment we send a service agreement covering the work, the hours set aside, and cancellation terms. Nothing costs more than the NDIS price guide.
Assessment against your plan goals
Your first appointment looks at what's going on with communication or swallowing, what you want to be able to do, and how that lines up with the goals in your plan. Treatment starts from there.
Therapy, reports, and plan reviews
Progress reports and plan-review letters — and the time to write them — are built into your agreed hours. At each plan review we talk through what's been done and what to ask for next.

Common questions
Questions we get asked a lot.
Do I need a referral to book NDIS speech pathology?
No formal referral is needed. Plan-managed and self-managed participants can book straight in. If your plan is NDIA-managed, we check where we stand as a registered provider for your situation before we confirm.
What happens at the first appointment?
The first appointment is an assessment — what's going on, what you want to be able to do, and how that lines up with the goals already in your plan. Treatment starts from there.
Does my plan cover progress reports and plan reviews?
Yes. Progress reports and plan-review letters, and the time it takes to write them, are built into your agreed hours. At each plan review we talk through what's been done and what to ask for next.
What if I'm not sure my plan covers speech pathology?
Bring a copy of your plan, or the funded-supports section, to your first appointment. We'll check whether it sits under Capacity Building — Improved Daily Living or Improved Health and Wellbeing — and talk you through what's possible.
