About Thimble
Tess Hallett
Director

Certified Practising Speech Pathologist
My mantra is:
If I can make someone's life even slightly better or easier, then do it.
Hi, I'm Tess. 👋🏻
I'm a neurodivergent human, speechie, and mum with a love of books, British crime dramas, nature, and cold weather. I live with my family and our menagerie of animals on the Gold Coast.
I have worked in the area of acquired and traumatic brain injury for eight years, providing home-based and community therapy. I started Thimble in 2021 so I could offer my clients (and myself) more flexibility and choice. I feel passionately about my clients' rights to communicate and I aim to provide evidence-based therapy and education that makes a difference in their lives.
My favourite thing about my work is being able to go into a person's home and finding little 'life hacks' - seeing where we can make a real and positive impact in their everyday routines and activities.
My love of language and learning is something I fuse into my work, and hope to use to help others. I want to create a safe and inclusive space for my clients where transparency, trust, and their goals sit at the core of what we do together.
