Communication is at the centre of how we connect with others and take part in everyday life. For many NDIS participants, challenges with speech, language, or social communication can create significant barriers, not just in conversation, but in education, employment, relationships, and independence. That’s where speech pathology plays a vital role.
At LiveBig, our speech pathologists work alongside NDIS participants of all ages to break down these barriers and build up confidence and skills. Whether a person has a developmental delay, autism, a neurological condition, or has experienced stroke or trauma, speech therapy can offer support tailored to their unique needs.
How Speech Pathology Helps
Speech pathology is about so much more than just speech. Our therapists help with language development, social communication, literacy skills, voice quality, and even swallowing and mealtime management. Each session is guided by the participant’s goals, from being able to say their name clearly, to ordering a coffee independently, or engaging in a conversation with peers at school or work.
Giving Everyone a Voice
For non-verbal participants or those with limited verbal language, our team also works with a range of Augmentative and Alternative Communication systems, such as communication boards, apps, or speech-generating devices, to give individuals a voice in a way that works for them. These tools are carefully matched and introduced with training and support to ensure they are effective.
Flexible Support Wherever You Are
At LiveBig, our speech pathologists take a compassionate, strengths-based approach. We work collaboratively with participants, families, and support teams to build a communication plan that makes sense for real life, not just the therapy room. Whether therapy is delivered in-home, online, or in the community, we focus on practical skills that make a real-world difference.
If you or a loved one is an NDIS participant facing communication challenges, speech pathology can open new. At LiveBig, we’re passionate about helping every voice be heard, in whatever way that looks.
