Gundagai Speech Pathologist

Speech Clinic Gundagai supports children across their childhood and teenage years who live in the Gundagai location. We are strong advocates for early intervention. It’s critically important to recognise signs of potential speech, language, literacy or social difficulties, as this helps us to minimise future impacts on social and academic success.

They’ll grow out of it, right?
We’re always asked, “when is the best age to start speech therapy?”. Early is always best. Speech and Language Pathologists can complete assessments and provide treatment to children from 16 months to 18 years old. There is strong evidence supporting early intervention. When a speech therapist can support a child from birth until 4-5 years old, they can reduce the long-term impacts of a communication or language disorder. This gives our children the best chance to be ready for school. Sometimes speech, literacy, fluency, language and social interaction difficulties can become present throughout a child’s schooling years. We also love supporting school-aged children to reach their academic and social potential.
