Early Start Australia | Vic | Hawthorn has been leading the way for paediatric allied health for young children with Autism in Melbourne.

Our clinics were the first to bring the ground-breaking Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) program to Australian families and proudly offer the rigorous ESDM training that is required for professionals.

We provide Psychology, Occupational Therapy and Speech and Language Pathology services to children (0-7 years) in the Hawthorn area and believe in the enormous potential that lies within every child and young person.

The Hawthorn Therapy Centre is passionate about providing interventions and supports and offers the unique Little Oaks program.

COVID-19 has created opportunities for us to deliver our allied health services via Telehealth which means we can help even more families, no matter where you are located.

Programs

As part of your therapy journey your therapist we may recommend some specific therapy programs to assist in achieving your goals including:

The use of alternative augmentative communication (AAC) strategies can support people with communication difficulties.

When working with children we use a family-centered model, supporting caregivers and children to develop skills, knowledge and understanding as we all work together.

Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets is an approach to speech disorders that encompasses the use of physical prompts to give a client sensory feedback about the positioning of their lips, tongue and jaw.

Little Oaks is for children under five years of age, particularly toddlers, with known developmental delays, Autism or disabilities.
