What Is Speech Pathology?
At Chrome Health, speech pathology is about so much more than words, it’s about connection, expression, and building confidence. Our speech pathologists support people across the gender and neurodiversity spectrum, delivering care that’s queer‑affirming, inclusive, and grounded in lived experience.
What Speech Pathologists Do
Empower Communication Across the Lifespan
From early language development to adult clarity and social interaction, we personalise therapy to help you express yourself with authenticity and ease.
Support Speech, Language & Swallowing
We address areas like articulation, fluency, voice health, comprehension, social communication, and safe swallowing, building skills that matter in everyday life.
Innovative, Evidence‑Based Approaches
Therapy combines tried-and-true techniques with the flexibility of telehealth or in-home support, tailored to your needs and environment.
Our Services at Chrome Health
We offer a full suite of speech pathology tailored for LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients, delivered with care and cultural humility:
Assessment & Personalised Planning
We begin by listening—understanding your communication goals, context, and preferences—then design a plan that complements your identity and strengths.
Therapy Across Communication Domains
Personalised support for language development, speech clarity, social skills, literacy, stuttering, voice care, and alternative communication methods.
Swallowing & Feeding Support
Whether it's enhancing safe swallowing or improving mealtime routines, we offer patient-specific strategies that feel respectful.
Tech & Alternative Communication (AAC)
We explore tools like gestures, sign-supported strategies, or digital systems to help you communicate in ways that suit your style.
