Supporting rural kids and families grow, learn and flourish!
At Blossom Rural, we are passionate about providing quality allied health services to rural and remote families, across Australia.
We are a Speech Pathology and Occupational Therapy practice providing accessible and evidence-based support to children, families and schools/daycares/organisations.
All services are delivered via telehealth, allowing families living in small communities, regional centres, on farms and stations, to access services without the hassle of travel or long waitlists.
Blossom Rural was founded in Far Western NSW and was inspired by a distinct gap in access to allied health services for country kids.
Begin with Blossom
‘Begin with Blossom’ is a free 10-minute phone call with one of our Speech Pathologists or Occupational Therapists.
We understand that navigating and starting allied health supports can feel overwhelming. At Blossom Rural, we want families to feel supported from the very beginning.
‘Begin With Blossom’ is our early support process, designed to help families feel confident, informed, and connected as they start their therapy journey with us.
This process is perfect for you, if:
- You are wondering if Blossom Rural can help your child
- You have questions regarding telehealth and how this could support your family
- You need a helping hand with your child’s development but are unsure where to start

How does it work?
Contact us
Get in touch with us through our enquiry form and tell us a little bit about your child and the support you are looking for. Once you have reached out, our intake team will give you a call to talk through your enquiry and the next steps.
Initial Consultation
You will complete an Initial Consultation with your Speech Pathologist or Occupational Therapist. This gives us time to get to know your child and family, talk through your concerns, and understand what support may be most helpful.
Assessment
If assessment is recommended, your clinician will begin the relevant assessments with your child. This helps us better understand your child’s strengths, needs, and the areas where support may be helpful.
Therapy begins!
Therapy is fun, practical and tailored to your child’s goals. Depending on your child and family goals, sessions may involve 1:1 therapy with your child, parent coaching, or a combination of both.
