Our organisation helps families build healthier relationships with gaming. We offer mentoring services to help families prevent or manage a problem with gaming using our evidence informed method.
We are now expanding our Speech Pathologist team.
This is a unique role where being a gamer yourself, and having an understanding of gaming culture is a valuable asset. The key skill that our clients need is your ability to build rapport through gaming.
This can help build rapport, foster trust, and enhance therapeutic outcomes with our client base.
If you're a qualified Speech Pathologist with an interest in or experience with gaming, we'd love to hear from you.
