About us

Guided by purpose, grounded in care.

Learn more about who we are and why we do what we do.

QPAH began on the Gold Coast with a simple belief: everyone deserves access to therapy that empowers them to grow and thrive. Today, we are a multidisciplinary team of music, speech, and occupational therapists supporting people across the lifespan — from children and families to older adults. Our focus is person-centred care that builds confidence, connection, and independence.

Why Qpah?

Living our values, inspired by change.

The principles that guide us shape every interaction and every outcome.

Our values guide every session toward deeper connection, real progress, and lasting confidence. At QPAH, collaboration, compassion, and inclusivity are more than words – they guide every session, every partnership, and every story of growth. We’re here to make therapy accessible, empowering, and truly life-changing.

Our History

40+ years experience

2000-2021 | Where our story began

Before QPAH, there were two trusted practices — Music with Monica and Gold Coast Speech Therapy. In 2021, we came together with a shared vision: to create a united allied health service built on compassion, collaboration, and community.

2021 | Growing into something bigger

When Music with Monica and Gold Coast Speech Therapy came together, we formed a strong team of music and speech therapists united by one vision: holistic, person-centred care.

2024 | A growing multidisciplinary team

As our community’s needs grew, so did we — expanding to include Occupational Therapy as part of our QPAH family in 2024. Today, our music, speech, and occupational therapists work side by side — offering holistic, person-centred support that empowers children, families, and older adults to thrive.

From early childhood through to older adulthood, our multidisciplinary team is here for the whole community — delivering care that builds confidence, independence, and wellbeing at every stage of life.

Local roots. Lifelong care.

Two trusted local practices came together in 2021 – Music with Monica and Gold Coast Speech Therapy – carrying forward those roots as a united practice supporting the whole community. Together, we brought our shared vision to life: providing high-quality, person-centred allied health care that supports people across the lifespan.

What began on the Gold Coast as two family-focused practices has grown into a multidisciplinary team offering speech pathology, occupational therapy, music therapy, and assessments. From children and families to older adults, we continue to build on our strong community roots – delivering collaborative care that empowers growth, independence, and wellbeing.
