Speech Therapy

The world and its possibilities are open to us when we can communicate effectively with others. Living with a disability can make ‘normal’ communication more difficult, but that doesn’t mean we can’t participate in a full and rich life. Rocky Bay Speech Pathologists are here to partner with you and find the communication method that works for you – whatever that looks like.

Speech, sign language, body language, manual or electronic communication devices – Rocky Bay Speech Pathologists take a holistic approach to communication and include your friends, family, carers and support network in this approach, to surround you with people all using the same language.

Speech pathologists at Rocky Bay assist people of all ages and all abilities including:

  • A young child learning the mechanics of making certain sounds
  • A primary school-aged child struggling to make friends
  • A young adult learning to be more independent by text messaging and reading menus
  • An adult learning to form words again after a stroke.

But it’s more than just speech and communication, our staff are also experts in swallowing and Dysphagia and can assist with the devices, foods and drinks you can use to eat easily and safely. Let us show you the utensils, thickeners and pre-packaged foods you’ll love – then, partner with a Rocky Bay dietician to really set you on a path to success. When we work together, anything is possible.
