Session Fees
We are transparent with our fees.
We provide services at a time-based rate. We can provide services at our clinic in Coolbellup, or at home, work or schools. Payments are made on the day for those who attend the clinic. For community visits, accounts are provided following sessions and payments need to be made within 7 days. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Assessment & Therapy
Session can be conducted in the community, such as at school, daycare, home or work, for an additional travel fee. Telehealth session online are also available.
Our sessions are based on the therapeutic hour, where sessions include client facing time as well as planning and preparation time. To ensure you receive the best quality care and support, our therapists dedicate time to checking in with you, as well as carefully evaluating, reflecting, planning, and documenting progress for your specific needs and situation. This ensures we progress together in the next steps towards achieving our goals.
Therapy Assistant Sessions
We also offer the affordable option of therapy services through Therapy Assistants (TA). Our Therapy Assistants (often Speech Pathology Students) are highly supported by our qualified Speech Pathologist, each receiving regular support meetings and guidance.
Report Writing
As a professional standard, all assessments require a report. A basic summary report can be provided, or more complex assessment reports may be required for longer, more complex assessments.
School/Daycare Screening
Costs for school visits and school assessment screening will be given on a case-by-case basis as they are influenced by age, areas screened and travel distance etc.
Payment Options
We have a HICAPS machine at the clinic to allow immediate claiming of private health funds and card payments. We also accept cash. We are registered with all the major funding bodies including Medicare, NDIS and private health providers. Clients can also choose to have a direct payment set up following each session through Medipass.
