Our Team

Grow & Tell values family-centred and research-based therapy approaches that are tailored for you and your child.

Research shows that families who are involved in speech therapy and use speech therapy strategies at home have the best outcomes for their child.  

We empower parents, carers and teachers to feel confident to carry-over goals at home and a pre/school so that learning continues to take place outside of therapy sessions.  

Our team of speech therapists are kind, compassionate, professional, open and honest, and passionate about working with children to support them to reach their potential.
