How We Can Help

We specialise in early intervention and DIR® Floortime, using a comprehensive range of therapy techniques to meet our client's diverse needs.

Speech Therapy for Paediatric Clients

With extensive paediatric speech therapy experience, we provide a nurturing environment to assist our client's to meet their individual needs.

Family Centred Practice

SenseAbility Speech Therapy prides itself on understanding family centred practice. We approach therapy as a partnership between parents and therapists; parents are the experts of their child, whilst Speech Therapist's have expertise in the areas of communication, development and social skills. Together, we work to achieve the best outcomes for your child.

Autism / Neurodiversity

Using the DIR® Floortime evidence based model, we aim to support our client's and their families to achieve their communication and social goals.

DIR® Floortime is a comprehensive, evidence based therapy approach for guiding intervention with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental challenges. 'D' describes development, 'I' describes individual differences (i.e. the way each person takes in information about the world, processes and understands it), and 'R' describes relationship/relatedness. The objectives of DIR® Floortime are to build healthy foundations for social, emotional and intellectual capacities. DIR® Floortime promotes healthy development in all children but it has been shown to be very effective with children on the autism spectrum as well as with children who have other developmental challenges.

Sensory Processing

Using DIR® Floortime as its foundational model, SenseAbility Speech Therapy has developed greater knowledge and skills in supporting children with underlying sensory processing challenges. SenseAbility Speech Therapy is a sensory based practice as its founder and Director, Angela O'Sullivan has co-treated with Occupational Therapists, specialising in sensory processing from 2011 to 2020. Through better understanding and working with a child's unique individual differences, 'I', Angela believes, Speech Therapists have greater capacity to understand and support their client's needs, ultimately leading to achieving their therapy goals and better outcomes.

Client-Centric Approach

At SenseAbility Speech Therapy, we believe in a client-centric approach. We understand that each client is unique, and therefore, we tailor our services to meet their individual needs. We work closely with parents, caregivers, and other professionals to ensure a holistic approach to our client's treatment plans.

SenseAbility Speech Therapy, works collaboratively with their client's other therapists, creating a 'virtual therapy team' to best support client goals.
