About Siemma Kent:

Siemma is a certified practising Speech Pathologist and founded Tok Tok Therapies in 2017 after working at an early intervention centre for four years. Specialising in autism as a new graduate prompted additional training within the field of applied behavioural analysis (ABA). Siemma has an in-depth knowledge of autism spectrum disorders, which has fuelled her motivation to continue learning over the years. 

She has a special interest in teaching functional communication and reducing maladaptive behaviours, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC), early intervention and play-based therapy, teaching social skills, emphasising the importance of movement and developing motor skills, emotional regulation and sensory processing differences. 

Siemma is also an orofacial myofunctional therapist, which allows her to treat speech and feeding difficulties with a more holistic approach. Siemma’s approach reflects the ‘whole person’ and has a consideration for goals outside traditional Speech Pathology. She is passionate about upskilling and empowering parents and educators as consistency is key!
