Our Services

Welcome to Kalima Speech Pathology

 

Kalima Speech Pathology provides child-centred speech pathology services for children aged 0–12 years in northern Melbourne. 

We offer bilingual services in English and Arabic, supporting families from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. Our approach is neurodiversity-affirming, respecting each child’s strengths, individuality, and unique ways of communicating.

There is no waitlist for Term 2, 2026, so appointments are available now.

Speech & Language Assessments

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

Speech & Language Assessments

 

We take the time to understand your child’s strengths and areas of need through a comprehensive, child-friendly assessment. 


You will receive clear explanations and practical recommendations so you know exactly how to support your child moving forward.

Speech Sound Therapy

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

Speech & Language Assessments

 

We support children to develop clear and accurate speech sounds, helping them to be better understood by others. This includes working on sound errors, speech clarity, and patterns that affect how words are produced.


Therapy is tailored to your child’s needs and may focus on learning new sounds, practising sounds in words and sentences, and building confidence in everyday communication. We use engaging, play-based approaches to make learning effective and enjoyable.

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)


We support children to develop their understanding and use of language, including following instructions, building vocabulary, forming sentences, using language to express their needs and  interact with others.


Our therapy is play-based, functional, and tailored to your child’s interests and developmental stage. We also work closely with families, teachers and educators, providing practical strategies to support language development in everyday routines—so learning continues beyond the therapy sessions.

Augmentative & Alternative Communication (AAC)

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

Language Therapy (Early Language Intervention)

 

We support children who benefit from alternative ways to communicate, including the use of visuals, key word signs, and speech-generating devices. AAC can help children express their wants, needs, thoughts, and ideas, while also supporting the development of spoken language.


We provide support with AAC trials, exploring a range of communication systems and devices to find the best fit for your child. We also guide families through the process of obtaining AAC devices, including support with NDIS funding applications and reports.


Our approach is individualised, functional, and centred around helping your child communicate effectively in their everyday environments.

We support children to develop awareness of oral habits and muscle patterns that may impact speech, breathing, and feeding (e.g., mouth breathing, tongue thrust). Therapy focuses on improving the function and coordination of oral muscles.


Our speech pathologist is certified in Orofacial Myology, ensuring therapy is guided by specialised training in this area.
