Mrs Joyce Cai
Speech Pathologist
Joyce holds a Bachelor of Applied Science (Speech Pathology) with First Class Honours from the University of Sydney and a Master of Teaching (Early Childhood) from the University of Melbourne. Her background in speech pathology and education informs a holistic approach to communication, learning and development.Â
Â
Bilingual in English and Mandarin Chinese, Joyce understands how language, culture and personal experience shape communication and identity.
Â
Joyce works with children, adolescents and adults using a neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based approach.
Â
She has extensive experience supporting individuals, especially children with trauma backgrounds, social anxiety and emotional regulation differences, including those who communicate their needs and distress through behaviour.
Â
She values multidisciplinary collaboration to provide holistic, individualised support.
Joyce believes communication does not exist in isolation. It is shaped by the individual, their relationships, communication partners and environment.
Â
She prioritises safety, trust and genuine connection, creating opportunities for communication to grow from intrinsic motivation and shared enjoyment rather than feeling like a chore or an expected performance. Her goal is to help people communicate authentically, advocate for themselves, participate meaningfully in everyday life and achieve their potential.
​
Joyce provides speech, language and communication assessments and individualised therapy.
​
Language spoken:Â English and Mandarin Chinese.
