Clear speech. Strong literacy. Brighter futures.
Speech, language, and literacy therapy for school-aged children across the Macedon Ranges. Delivered by a clinician with 20 years in the classroom, not just the clinic.
Waiting lists are long. Classroom demands are high. Getting the right support shouldn't be a struggle.
Every term without support is a term your child falls further behind their peers. The right intervention, at the right time, changes everything.
Specialist Intervention
Evidence-based therapy that translates directly to the classroom.
Speech Therapy
When your child struggles to be understood, it affects everything from friendships to classroom confidence. We work on the specific sounds and patterns holding them back.
- Articulation delays
- Phonological disorders
- Motor speech challenges
Language Skills
Children who can't find the right words or follow instructions in class fall behind fast. We build the language skills they need to keep up and speak up.
- Vocabulary expansion
- Sentence structure
- Social conversation concepts
Literacy Support
Reading and writing difficulties don't resolve on their own. We assess where the gaps are and build a targeted plan from primary through to secondary years.
- Phonological awareness
- Spelling strategies
- Reading comprehension
Bridging the gap between clinic and classroom.
Sarah Nathan spent over 20 years as an additional learning needs educator in Victorian schools before becoming a speech pathologist. She's seen firsthand how speech and language difficulties play out in the classroom, and she brings that understanding to every session.
As a solo practitioner, Sarah guarantees personalised, consistent care. Your child works with the same dedicated therapist every single session. No hand-offs. No repeating your story.

How we work
A clear path forward for your child's development.
Initial Consultation
We begin with a thorough discussion about your child's history, your concerns, and their current challenges at home and school. This ensures we recommend the right assessment pathway.
Comprehensive Assessment
Using evidence-based tools, we evaluate your child's speech, language, or literacy skills. You receive a detailed report outlining their strengths and specific areas requiring intervention.
Targeted Therapy
We develop a tailored intervention plan. Sessions are engaging, child-focused, and designed to align therapy goals with practical, real-world outcomes in the classroom.
Common Questions
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No referral is required to access our services. You can contact us directly to book an initial consultation. However, if you are claiming through Medicare (Chronic Disease Management plan), a referral from your GP is necessary.
Where do sessions take place?
We offer limited clinic-based appointments in Kyneton, as well as telehealth appointments for families across the Macedon Ranges and regional Victoria who prefer the convenience of home-based therapy.
How long are the therapy sessions?
Standard therapy sessions are 45 minutes. This includes direct intervention time with your child, followed by feedback and discussion of home practice strategies with parents.
Don't wait for them to catch up on their own.
The earlier your child gets the right support, the less ground they have to make up. Get in touch to talk through your concerns and book an initial consultation.
