ABOUT US

At Talem Speech Pathology, we’re passionate about helping children thrive. Since opening in March 2021, we’ve been delivering specialised services in speech, feeding and orofacial myology, backed by a team that is passionate, collaborative, and supportive.

We love what we do, and we make work fun! Our bright, modern clinic in North Lakes has a cafe on site and plenty of parking. We’re proud to work with a trusted multidisciplinary referral network, allowing us to provide holistic care and connect with other professionals to achieve the best outcomes for our clients.

At Talem, you’ll find a team that values growth, ongoing learning and connection — a place where your expertise is recognised and your passion for helping children can truly shine.

• Intervention blocks and flexible scheduling: We do things differently at TSP. Interventions are tailored to each client and family, whether that’s ad hoc support, collaborating with other services, or working within an intensive treatment block format. Our flexible scheduling supports the needs of clients and families, which is particularly important in speech, feeding, and orofacial myology.

• We’re proud to be a trusted referral source for local providers: Coordinating care within a multidisciplinary team is central to our approach, helping us address all components of a client’s needs and achieve faster progress. We work closely with ENTs, dentists, dieticians, occupational therapists, and body workers, to name a few.
