Comparison
Therapy Connect vs Hey Sprout
Therapy Connect is an online-only allied health provider that has offered speech pathology, OT, psychology and other therapies by video since 2015.
Hey Sprout is new. We're onboarding our first clinicians now and we aren't NDIS-registered yet, so the table says so. Everything about Therapy Connect comes from their own website, with a link to the page we used.

When Therapy Connect may suit you better
- You want a provider with an established team: they list 70+ practitioners and have worked online since 2015.
- You also need dietetics, physiotherapy or positive behaviour support.
- Your plan is NDIA-managed. They state they are NDIS-registered, and we can’t take NDIA-managed plans yet.
What Hey Sprout offers today
One online enquiry covers speech pathology, occupational therapy and psychology, so you don't start from scratch for each one. Sessions are by video, so there's no travel. We work with plan-managed and self-managed NDIS plans. We can't take NDIA-managed plans yet.
We're still onboarding our first clinicians. Send an enquiry and we'll reply within 1 business day and tell you honestly whether and when we can help.
