Transforming Therapy Services opened in 2016 with a mission to create a space and service which provides neuro-affirming and transformative services to clients and their families. We understand development occurs in many ways and within many cultural experiences and seek to provide holistic and family centered occupational therapy, speech pathology and psychotherapy.

As part of the speech pathology team you will be using multi-disciplinary practices and receive extensive training. If you love people like Jessie Ginsberg (Sensory SLP), Chris Wanger (Speech Dude), Margc Blanc, Katja Piscitelli (boho speechie), Amy Graham, Rachel Mabel and Tera Sumpter (seeds of learning) then you will love our style. We know what we learnt at Uni is a snippet to the real world and that evidence based practice is more than just research.

As a company we are relationship style and bottom up or inside out based which results in you developing DIR Floor time, Synergetic Play Therapy, Sensory Integration and Neurodevelopmental Therapy skills (just to name a few). As a speech team we value evidence and research informed practice and provide our speech pathologists in training in the entire picture of development including Gestalt and Analytical develop, the variations in assessment and intervention practices across processing styles, as well as up to date speech sound and apraxia of speech assessment and intervention practices. Our Team utilizes a range of High Tech AAC and provides formal training for our team in various forms of AAC to ensure we can assess and prescribe what works best for our client, not what is available. We value being informed and trained in up to date models of assessment and intervention.

Our Team is expanding and looking for speech pathologists to join our team. We have varied positions available to suit new graduates and early career clinicians, as well as established clinicians looking for professional growth opportunities. All new employees engage with our 100 day success program which includes:

Initial role training to explain all the processes in place to enable smooth running from admin to clinical roles.

Professional development to increase your knowledge on formal and informal assessment and intervention.

Daily check ins

Twice weekly supervision for the first full year of employment.

Weekly Professional development groups with your team where you are provided with a custom course created by the clinical director or chosen by the clinical director to increase the team's knowledge base.

As a new employee you will receive training on all aspects of being an SLP and complete observations on all roles before starting to complete assessments. We gradually drip feed in clients and ensure you understand and can complete the assessment to intervention process before increasing your client load. We start with 1-2 client a day (depending on your experience), with full support to plan and execute assessments (planning prep, in room supervision and post assessment note completion).

Transforming Kids has a wealth of knowledge from:

Sensory Integration and the neurobiology of filtering

Gestalt Cognition and Language Processing

Apraxia of Speech

Feeding

Speech Sound Disorders

Our Clinical space is diverse. From large sensory motor rooms, to a full accessible kitchen, media/library room, art room and basketball court, you have all the equipment and space needed to enable engaging and intrinsically motivating sessions. We have caseload variability as our clinic is custom built to support all ages and all neurotypes. We are an engaging practice who does not use compliance forms of therapy. We are neuro-affirming and function focused.

The roles available are both full time and part time with varied hours to suit your life needs, as well as open to overseas applicants.

As a human, we also seek to support you on your journey of development. Our Team understands development is bumpy and self reflection can be emotionally activating. We stay away from ‘shoulds' and provide endless support through seniors coming into sessions with you, 1:1 and small group training. As a team we have lunch time tournaments from netball, basketball, handball or soccer and do team lunch orders and coffee runs. We also love escape rooms, lawn bowls and laser tag.

We want you to find the right workplace for you. So feel free to touch base with our clinical director either via email ([email protected]) or phone (02 9621 2504), who can arrange for an in person chat or tour!
