Speech Therapy Jordan Springs
Speech therapists and speech pathologists work together to empower families and children with communication skills that foster learning. They also encourage participation in community and home activities. We can provide care for children suffering from stuttering, apraxia of speech, autism spectrum disorder, lisps and assist with literacy development in early childhood, expressive language disorders, receptive language disorders and articulation disorders.
We believe that every child should have access to therapy regardless of where they live. Therefore, we offer therapy online as well as in our clinics in Rosehill Bella Vista, Oran Park and Kingswood. We also proudly offer our services to the surrounding suburbs of Western Sydney.

Who will be my child's speech pathologist?
We value your family and care about your child. You will see the same therapist every time you visit us at the clinic. This ensures that you and your family are familiar with the therapist responsible for your child’s communication journey. This allows the therapist to get to know your child’s learning style and how they progress.
All of our therapists have a university degree at a minimum and are members of our professional body, Speech Pathology Australia. Our therapists have experience working with children of all ages with a range of communication needs, including: language, speech, reading, spelling, stuttering and social skills.
The Therapists at Chatterbox are required to continue their education. Regular Professional Development Workshops are required to ensure that our Therapists can provide Chatterbox families with the best, most current, research-based therapy.
Speech pathologists are specially trained to assess and treat your child's communication skills.
Don’t wait. Early intervention is proven to be a key factor in helping children succeed now and for future success. These difficulties don’t simply ‘go away”. Your child is not having these difficulties because they are lazy. It is possible that your child may avoid talking in certain situations or become frustrated when it comes to homework.
It’s because it is hard for them. Although a parent cannot cause their child to experience these difficulties, it is possible for them to find the right support and advice to help them.
