Speech Pathology
Immediate Capacity
At Brain Matters Allied Health, we provide specialised speech pathology services for individuals with brain injuries and neurodegenerative conditions (as well as many other conditions). Our therapists work with you to improve speech, language, and communication skills. We can also assist with swallowing difficulties / mealtime support.
Psychology
Capacity in 2-4 weeks
Our experienced psychologists offer therapy and counselling for individuals dealing with the emotional and cognitive effects of brain injuries or neurodegenerative conditions; as well as other conditions. We use a range of therapeutic approaches to help you improve your mental health and wellbeing. We can also support the mental health and well-being of spouses or other family members who are struggling to cope with such diagnoses in their loved ones.
Dietetics
Immediate Capacity
Good nutrition is essential for optimal brain health. Our dietitian will work with you to develop personalised nutrition plans to support your brain health and overall wellbeing.
Brain injury and neurodegenerative conditions can lead to poor nutrition outcomes without input from a qualified Dietitian; especially if enteral feeding support is required.
Social Group
Statistically speaking, those with brain injury are significantly more likely to experience social isolation and often avoid partaking in social situations. We offer regular social groups with fun and engaging ice breaking activities; which are not only therapeutic but offer clients the opportunity to engage with others who are on similar journey's.
We can't thank the team enough for all their support. Friendly staff, nice comfortable rooms and easy parking. We can thoroughly recommend this service!
