I'm a speech-language therapist with over 20 years' experience helping children and adults communicate with clarity and confidence. My clinic is in Tauranga, and I work with families across New Zealand online.
I believe therapy should be practical and joyful - built into games, stories and everyday routines, so progress carries on long after the session ends. Parents and whānau are always part of the plan.
Whether it's a toddler finding first words, a school-age reader who needs a different approach, or an adult rebuilding communication after injury - you'll get evidence-based support, one step at a time.
