Hi
there!
I’m Lukshini; a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist based in Sydney, with a passion for helping children discover the power of communication.
Throughout my career I’ve worked within a range of
different settings including community health centres,
private practice, not-for-profit organisations, childcare centres and schools (as both an educator and teacher in training).
I believe therapy should not only be evidence-based, but also an engaging, positive experience for the child and their family.
That’s why I’m passionate about providing a holistic,
family centred approach to therapy; involving not only
the child and the immediate family, but also other health professionals and educators in order to have the best outcomes in all contexts.
