Moira Speech Pathologist

Speech Clinic Moira provides speech therapy across their childhood and teenage years who live in the Moira location. We are strong advocates for early intervention. Recognising signs of potential speech, language, social, or literacy difficulties is important, as this helps us to reduce future impacts on academic success and a child’s social life.

Should you wait and see?
We are often asked, “when is the best age to start speech therapy?”. Earliest is always best. Speech Pathologists can provide treatment and complete assessments 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 full academic and social potential.
