Our Services

At Ayre Allied Health, we offer comprehensive speech pathology and occupational therapy assessments for clients of all ages. Assessments are tailored to each individual’s strengths, needs, and goals, and form the foundation for meaningful, personalised support planning.

Speech Pathology assessments may include:

• Speech sound assessments – identifying difficulties with articulation, phonology, or motor speech (e.g. saying “tat” instead of “cat”).

• Language assessments – evaluating understanding (receptive language) and use of language (expressive language).

• Social communication assessments – exploring interaction skills, non-verbal communication, and pragmatic language.

• Voice assessments – assessing vocal quality, pitch, and volume concerns.

• Literacy assessments – including phonological awareness, reading, spelling, and written language skills.

• AAC assessments – determining the need for and suitability of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) systems.

Occupational Therapy assessments may include:

• Functional capacity assessments – understanding a person’s ability to participate in everyday activities at home, school, and in the community.

• Sensory processing assessments – exploring sensory preferences, sensitivities, and regulation needs.

• Fine and gross motor assessments – assessing coordination, strength, balance, and motor planning.

• Self-care assessments – evaluating skills such as dressing, toileting, feeding, and hygiene.

• Emotional regulation and executive functioning assessments – understanding attention, emotional regulation, and coping skills.

• Assistive technology and equipment assessments – identifying supports to increase independence and participation.

Ayre Allied Health provides individualised speech pathology and occupational therapy intervention supporting clients across a broad range of communication, sensory, motor, and functional needs. Therapy is tailored to each person’s strengths, goals, and preferred ways of engaging, with a strong focus on meaningful participation in everyday life.
