The team takes a strongly neuro-affirming, evidence-based approach to therapy, focusing on each client's strengths, independence and participation in everyday life. You will work alongside Speech Pathologists, Occupational Therapists and Allied Health Assistants, with access to a broader multidisciplinary network and structured clinical support.

About the Role:

This is a predominantly paediatric Speech Pathologist position servicing Aspley and surrounding Brisbane suburbs, with opportunities to work with adolescents and adults depending on your clinical interests.

Your week may include:
