Therapy Assistant - in Clinic or Preschool/Childcare Visits
Communiskills aims to support our clients to achieve their goals. To enable this we also offer the option of a combined therapist and therapy assistant option. An experienced Speech Pathologist completes the assessment and develops a therapy plan. The therapy assistant then implements the therapy plan under the guidance and direction of the experienced therapist who reviews and adjusts the program as needed.
Therapy is tailored to each child’s needs, unique abilities and interests.
We assist your child to develop the skills needed to achieve success at preschool and school. Parents are included in therapy sessions at all times and we work collaboratively with you to assist your child to achieve their goals.
