What is speech therapy?

Speech Therapy FAQs

Speech therapy — formally called speech-language pathology — is a clinical service that evaluates and treats communication disorders in children and adults. A licensed Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) assesses articulation, language development, fluency, voice, and swallowing, then designs a personalised treatment plan with measurable goals.

What does speech therapy involve?

Therapy sessions combine structured exercises, play-based activities, language stimulation, and parent coaching depending on the individual’s age and needs. For children, this may include sound-production drills, vocabulary-building games, and social communication practice. For adults recovering from stroke or neurological conditions, therapy targets functional communication and swallowing rehabilitation.

Why early therapy matters

Research consistently shows that early intervention during peak brain plasticity — especially before age 5 — produces the fastest and most lasting improvements in communication skills, academic readiness, and social confidence.
