What is a Speech Pathologist?
Speech pathologists study, diagnose and treat communication disorders, including difficulties with speaking, listening, understanding language, reading, writing, social skills, stuttering and using voice.
We work with people who have difficulty communicating due to developmental delays, learning or intellectual disabilities, hearing loss, as well as other problems that can affect speech and language. (Speech Pathology Australia, 2017)
