Supervision / Clinical Mentoring

Xiu Ching supports clinicians seeking to enhance their clinical expertise and build confidence in specific areas of speech pathology by providing a safe, supportive, and constructive space for clinicians to grow and thrive in their professional journeys.

She is passionate about family-centered therapy using relationship-based approaches where the goal is to enhance the connection between the child and their caregivers. She does this through:

supporting caregivers' understanding of the child's behaviour through a neurodiversity-affirming lens
building stronger emotional bonds to foster trust and mutual respect
developing practical strategies to support the child or young person's strengths and needs while promoting positive interactions.

With a diverse background in private practice, telehealth, paediatric community clinics and transdisciplinary special needs school settings across regional and metropolitan Melbourne as well as additional training in Youth Mental Health, Xiu Ching supports clinicians in the following areas:

I’ve had the privilege of being supported by Xiu Ching, and her broad base of knowledge, diverse skill set, and many professional interests make her an exceptional mentor. She brings creativity and a tech-savvy approach to her sessions, ensuring her feedback is both innovative and practical.

What I appreciate most about Xiu Ching is her ability to think outside the box. Her insights are always thought-provoking, and I consistently walk away from our sessions with new perspectives and actionable strategies that have transformed the way I approach my work. She has an incredible talent for tailoring her mentoring to meet individual needs, always providing a fresh angle or alternative approach that inspires growth and confidence.

Whether it’s her deep expertise, her creative problem-solving, or her ability to incorporate technology seamlessly into her practice, Xiu Ching truly stands out as a mentor. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking supervision or mentorship that challenges, motivates, and equips them to reach the next level in their professional journey
