Stuttering & fluency
Stuttering is more than a speech pattern, it affects how people feel about speaking. We offer evidence-based therapy that addresses both.

Signs To Look For
Stuttering can look and feel different at different ages. Here’s when it’s worth seeking an assessment.
Frequent repetitions or prolongations of sounds or words that have lasted more than 3 months.
Secondary behaviours emerging; eye blinking, jaw tension, or visible struggle.
Your child is becoming aware of and anxious about their stutter.
Stuttering is affecting school participation, reading aloud, or social confidence.
Avoidance of speaking situations; phone calls, presentations, social events.
Stuttering is causing distress or limiting opportunity.

Our Approach
Evidence-based therapy delivered in a way that works for each individual and their life.
Evidence-based treatment
We use the Lidcombe Program for young children and Camperdown Program or Westmead for older children and adults, both have strong research support.
Family involvement
For children, we coach parents to continue progress at home. The Lidcombe Program is largely parent-delivered with clinician guidance.
Addressing the whole person
We work on both the physical aspects of fluency and the thoughts and feelings around speaking because both matter.
At your pace
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. We adapt to your goals whether that’s fluency, acceptance, or confidence to speak up.
Common Questions
Many young children do naturally recover from stuttering, but this is not guaranteed. Early intervention improves outcomes and we'd rather assess early than wait and see when there are signs of struggle.
Fluency shaping is one approach, but modern stuttering therapy is broader, it includes acceptance-based and cognitive approaches alongside techniques for smoother speech. We tailor it to you.
Absolutely. Adults can make significant gains in fluency, but also in confidence, resilience and willingness to engage in speaking situations that once felt impossible.
Stuttering therapy may be funded under NDIS depending on your plan. Contact us and we'll help you understand your options.
