CMB Speech Pathology provides comprehensive speech pathology assessment and screening services as part of our family, kindergarten and school based packages.
Getting to know you and your child is the first step in building a strong therapeutic relationship. This is best achieved through an initial consultation and by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your child’s communication skills related to your areas of concern.
Information collected through initial consultation and assessment will then be thoroughly analysed and interpreted and an appropriate therapy and/or management plan will be created.
For more information regarding the assessment process, as well as information related to our kindergarten and school screening services, please see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section of our website.

At CMB Speech Pathology, we offer one-to-one, personalised support plans that aim to address the individual and functional communication needs of each child and family.
We know that family life can be busy. We also know that as parents and carers, you are often best placed to support children’s communication development in meaningful ways outside of the therapy session.
With this in mind, we aim to focus on developing and implementing strategies that will help to enhance your child’s communication skills across many different contexts, not just during the speech pathology sessions.
We will work closely with you to develop a best-fit support plan that may include home-based strategies tailored to yours and your child’s specific needs and circumstances.
