What is Speech and Language Therapy?
Speech and language therapy addresses difficulties with spoken language (understanding and using words), speech sounds (how we produce sounds for speaking), voice (the quality, pitch, and volume of our voice), and communication (how we express and receive information). These challenges can impact a child's ability to participate fully in daily activities, from nursery and school to friendships and family interactions.
