Speech Pathology Services for Children in Ipswich
What is Paediatric Speech Pathology?
Paediatric speech pathology (also known as speech therapy) helps children develop the communication skills they need to thrive at home, in kindy or school, and in everyday life. At Access to Therapy, our qualified speech pathologists support children across all stages of development—from first words to complex conversations.
Whether your child is struggling to be understood, having difficulty following instructions, or facing challenges with literacy, our team is here to help.
What We Support
Our speech pathologists work with children who experience:
Speech sound difficulties (e.g. unclear speech, lisp, stuttering, articulation delays)
Language delays or disorders (e.g. understanding words, using sentences, following instructions)
Early literacy challenges (e.g. recognising letters and sounds, reading, spelling)
Social communication needs (e.g. taking turns, understanding social rules, autism support)
Fluency difficulties (e.g. stuttering, repetition, blocking)
Alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) for children who are non-verbal or have limited verbal skills
Our approach is grounded in evidence-based practice and tailored to each child’s goals, interests, and learning style.
