If you’re finding it difficult to communicate – or understand when others communicate with you – our expert speech therapists can help. We work with you to assess and diagnose speech, language, fluency and voice disorders to get to the root of your communication challenges.
Once we’ve completed a communication assessment, we can create an individual treatment plan that can help get your speech back on track quickly. We offer customised interventions that are designed specifically to meet your needs and boost your communication skills.

We break down the most common issue in accessing speech therapy services, which is travel and distance, by coming to your home.

At Alpha Allied Health, we are committed to providing the best possible care for our clients. We understand that every client is unique and we take a personalised approach and tailor our services to each client’s specific needs and goals. We work collaboratively with families and support workers and adapt our treatments to our client’s needs. We ensure that our clients reach their personalised goals and have sufficient choice in their treatment.
Absolutely! Speech therapy is much more than talking. The role of a speech therapist is diverse; we work on many aspects of communication, as well as feeding and swallowing. Communication includes articulation, fluency, language, social skills, cognition, literacy and hearing.
In adults, the more common impediments are swallowing/feeding issues, stuttering and loss of language and speech due to brain injury.
In children, the more common difficulties we treat are stuttering, delays with articulation, language, social communication and literacy. We work with children who have a range of disabilities including autism spectrum disorders.
Very few disorders will simply go away on their own. More often than not, speech therapy interventions are required to treat speech delays and disorders. The length of treatments can vary and depend on the type of disorder. Some difficulties can take a few months to resolve while others may require ongoing intervention for many years. Often home therapy activities are given to clients to follow up regularly between sessions to ensure the success of the program and intervention. Goals are reviewed regularly in collaboration with clients and their families/carers.
There is no difference between the two, the two terms are used interchangeably. In Australia, the terms speech pathologist, speech-language pathologist (SLP), speech therapist and ‘speechie’ for short are primarily used.
