About Mel Jay Speech - OUr Services
What is Speech Pathology?
Speech pathology helps people of all ages communicate and connect with others. Speech pathologists support speaking, understanding language, social communication, listening, and eating or swallowing safely. Our goal is to help people feel confident, included, and understood in everyday life.
Assessment
Assessment is an important part of the therapy process. It helps us understand strengths, challenges, and what matters most to you or your child, so we can plan the right support.
We offer assessments as part of ongoing therapy, as well as one-off assessments during quieter times, such as school holidays.
We provide assessments in the following areas:
- Speech sounds
- Reading and spelling
- Understanding and using language
- Stuttering and fluency
- Social communication skills
- Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)
If you’d like to learn more about our assessments or make an enquiry, please contact us today.
