Speech pathology in Lismore, delivered to you
Astrad Allied Health provides mobile speech pathology in Lismore for children, teens and adults. Our speech pathologists are certified with Speech Pathology Australia.

Lismore sits on the Wilsons River in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales. It is the regional centre for the wider Richmond Valley. Families here often travel a long way to reach allied health. A mobile service removes that trip. We come to you instead.
Regular speech therapy in Lismore is workable
Speech therapy works best when sessions repeat over time. Progress comes from steady practice. That is hard in regional New South Wales. Many providers only pass through now and then. Lismore sits inside Astrad’s day-to-day travel area. Our speech pathologists cross the Queensland border into the Northern Rivers as part of regular work. So ongoing therapy can be planned properly.
Astrad clinicians also travel further afield. They fly in and out to reach clients across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania. Lismore is one of the furthest towns we cover on a day-to-day basis. You can read more about the wider region on our Northern Rivers allied health page.

Speech therapy for children in Lismore
Many families come to us about a child’s talking. Our speech pathologists help children with unclear speech sounds, late talking and language delay. We also help with social skills and early reading. Sessions use play and everyday tasks, so learning feels natural. School matters a lot in a spread out area like the Richmond Valley. We can work in the classroom or at home. You choose what suits the child.
Adult speech pathology and swallowing support
We support adults whose speech changes after a stroke or a brain injury. We also help with progressive conditions. Therapy can build speech clarity, word finding and confidence. Eating and drinking can also become hard. Our swallowing assessment looks at mealtime safety. We then suggest simple, practical steps. Adults who stutter can get help through speech therapy for stuttering.
Telehealth speech therapy across the Northern Rivers
Some clients live well outside the town centre. They may be on farms or in smaller villages around the Richmond Valley. Telehealth can fill the gaps between visits. It keeps therapy moving. Our telehealth speech pathology sessions suit practice tasks, coaching parents and reviewing progress. We talk with you about the best mix of in-person and online sessions.
NDIS and funding for speech pathology in Lismore

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide mobile speech pathology in Lismore?
Yes. Astrad Allied Health provides mobile speech pathology in Lismore for children and adults. Our speech pathologists are certified with Speech Pathology Australia and they travel to you. We have no walk-in clinic. Sessions can happen at home, at school, in childcare or in a community setting. Lismore sits inside our day-to-day travel area, so we cross the Queensland border into the Northern Rivers as part of regular work.
Is speech pathology in Lismore covered by the NDIS?
Speech pathology is often funded under an NDIS plan. It usually sits under Capacity Building, Improved Daily Living. Astrad is not a registered NDIS provider, so we support self-managed and plan-managed participants. We can talk through how your funding may apply to speech therapy in Lismore. This is general information only, not NDIS or financial advice. The NDIA decides what your plan funds.
How do I know if my child needs to see a speech pathologist?
Trust what you notice at home. Common signs include unclear speech, a small vocabulary for their age, trouble following instructions, or frustration when trying to talk. Difficulty with reading and spelling at school can also point to a language need. You do not need a formal diagnosis to start. A speech pathology assessment gives you a clear picture, and tells you whether therapy would help your child.
Do you support adults as well as children?
Yes. We support adults with communication, voice, fluency and swallowing changes. This includes support after a stroke, a brain injury or a progressive condition such as dementia. Therapy can help with speech clarity, word finding and confidence in everyday conversation. We also assess swallowing and mealtime safety at home. Your speech pathologist builds a plan around your own goals, at your own pace.
Can we do speech therapy sessions online instead?
Yes. Telehealth works well for many people, and it suits the Northern Rivers where clients can live a long way from the town centre. Online sessions are useful for practice tasks, coaching parents and reviewing progress between visits. Some needs, such as swallowing assessment, are better handled in person. We talk with you about the right mix of in-person and online sessions.
Which areas around Lismore do you travel to?
Our speech pathologists travel across the Northern Rivers and the wider Richmond Valley, and Lismore is one of the furthest towns we cover on a day-to-day basis. Astrad also travels further into New South Wales for assessments, and our clinicians fly in and out to reach clients across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania.
