Welcome to Our Speech and Language Therapy Service

We are here to help you.

Our job is to make communicating, understanding, and swallowing easier, enabling better lives for people with communication and swallowing needs.

We help children, adults, their families and others who support them by listening to them and learning about what matters most. We don’t just try to “fix” things – we work with you to find ways that help in your everyday life.

We’ll work with you to plan therapy that fits your needs. Then support you with tools and strategies to help you achieve what matters most to you.

We’ll figure out what’s hard, what’s going well, and what you want to improve. Then we’ll do it together, step by step.

Because therapy should make sense in your life, not just in a clinic.
