Speech Therapy at home

Speech, voice and swallowing support at home.

A speech therapist works on speech clarity, fluency, voice and swallowing, for children and adults. Swallowing difficulty after a stroke is treated here too, which is safety rather than communication and should not wait.

What this treats

  • Speech Delay
  • Stammering
  • Autism Communication
  • Voice Disorder
  • Swallowing Issue

What a visit looks like

  1. AssessmentThe first visit is spent understanding the problem — what hurts, what you cannot do yet, and what you need to get back to.
  2. TreatmentHands-on work and guided exercise, in your own rooms, using what you already have rather than clinic equipment you do not.
  3. Between visitsYou are left with something to practise. Most of the progress happens here, not during the hour someone is with you.

Speech Therapy — questions we get

My child is three and barely speaking. Is that a delay?

It is worth an assessment. Children vary a great deal, and an assessment either reassures you or starts help early — both are better than waiting to see.

Can speech therapy help after a stroke?

Yes, for both speech and swallowing. Swallowing difficulty in particular carries a risk of food entering the lungs, so it is assessed promptly rather than treated as a matter of comfort.

How long are sessions?

About an hour, including time to show the family what to practise. Short daily practice between sessions matters more than session length.
