Jo has many years experience working as a Speech pathologist.  In the past she has held lecturing positions in Speech Pathology and has been the leader of a disability therapy team within the Sate Government.  Over the last 15 years she has honed her skills in working with children who have ASD, initially as a Speech Pathologist attached to a general Speech Pathology clinic and then in a behavioural intervention clinic.  For many years Jo ran social skills groups for children with Autism and Aspergers.  Later, having become aware of the potential of RDI®, Jo undertook training with the Connections Centre and began running her own clinic offering RDI® to families and Speech Therapy particularly to children with ASD.

During her career Jo has worked successfully with children and families from many cultures.

Jo’s clinic is in Lane Cove and so is easily accessed from the North Shore as well as from the Inner West of Sydney.  Jo is happy to see distance families, either in other states or in areas of NSW outside Sydney, having successfully worked with families in both Queensland and South Australia.  She is happy to travel to assist these families with their programs.
