About Beehive Speech Pathology
About Me
Hi! My name is Brigette. I am the Speech Pathologist at Beehive Speech Pathology.
I am a paediatric speech pathologist with a passion for providing speech pathology support to children, adolescents and their families using a person-centred and strengths based approach. I graduated from Australian Catholic University in 2018 and I am a Certified Practicing Speech Pathologist and member of Speech Pathology Australia. I have a clinical background providing speech pathology services across a range of settings, including private practice and the Department of Education in both mainstream and special schools.
Areas of practice that I am most passionate about include alternative and augmentative communication (AAC), language and literacy, play development and narrative, social communication, and neuro-access and inclusion. I also have experience in supporting students under the Disability Inclusion Profile.
Outside of work, I love to spend time with my family, including my pet cat, Jason. I love losing myself in a good book, and my love of books also translates into my speech pathology practice. I enjoy watching the AFL footy (I'm a massive St.Kilda fan), listening to Taylor Swift, and I like to stay active through pilates and walking.
