Speech Pathologists specialise in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a range of language and communication disorders. Specifically speech pathologists are able to help with:
- Assessment and intervention for articulation delays/disorders
- Assessment and intervention for language delays/disorders
- Support for Verbal Dyspraxia
- School readiness
- Treatment of stuttering
- Bilingualism
- Support for communication difficulties associated with Autism Spectrum Disorders and other developmental disabilities.
There are some great resources online to help parents work out whether their child needs to see a speech pathologist. Speech Pathology Australia is a great place to start:

Another useful (and more general site) is the Raising Children website which has some great information on language delay:

And of course you are very welcome to see our speech pathologists in the Centre – Georgina, Vanessa and Virginia.
