Speech pathology in Sydney

A speech pathologist helps with communication, and with eating, drinking and swallowing safely. They work with children and adults, at home, at school or work, or by telehealth.

  • Speech, language and communication
  • Communication devices and AAC
  • Swallowing and mealtime support
  • Stuttering and voice
  • Literacy and social communication
  • Training family and support workers

Sydney is one of the most multilingual cities in Australia. If your family speaks another language at home, it’s worth asking whether a speech pathologist has experience with bilingual communication, or speaks your language.

Every speech pathologist on Solotude is checked

Before a speech pathologist appears in search, we check their photo ID, their ABN and the NDIS Commission’s compliance records. Membership of Speech Pathology Australia, as a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist, is highly recommended. Holding it is the speech pathologist’s own responsibility, and it shows on their profile as self-reported, so ask for their membership details before you start.

Many speech pathologists also add an NDIS Worker Screening Check or a Working with Children Check. We verify those too, and you can filter your search to only see speech pathologists who hold them. Read how it works in our Verification Policy.

What speech pathology costs in Sydney

Sydney uses the standard NDIS price limits, with no remote loading. Providers can usually also claim some travel time to get to you, up to 30 minutes in metro areas like Sydney, so someone who lives closer can stretch your funding further. Telehealth sessions have no travel time.

Every speech pathologist on Solotude shows their rate on their profile, so you know the cost before you message them. See current price limits on our NDIS speech pathologists page. You can also check the official NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits.

What qualifications do speech pathologists need?

Speech pathologists hold a university degree in speech pathology.

On Solotude, membership is self-reported, so ask for their details before you start.

Some do. Many speech pathologists visit schools, preschools and childcare with the school’s agreement, so they can work with your child where they learn. Ask about this in your first message.
