Parent, Caregiver, and Communication Partner Training

At As You Are Allied Health, we understand that parents, caregivers, and communication partners play a vital role in clients being able to reach their goals. That's why we offer coaching to parents, caregivers, and communication partners, equipping you with the skills and knowledge you need to support and understand those who are close to you. Our coaching sessions can be conducted in the comfort of your own home, over telehealth, or in our Leichhardt therapy space.
