Aisling (pronounced Ash-ling) is a senior speech pathologist and certified practicing member of Speech Pathology Australia. She is particularly interested in helping children who have autism, dyslexia, learning difficulties, and speech disorders.
Aisling believes that being able to communicate is one of life’s most important skills.
“Communication takes many forms: speaking, listening, facial expressions, reading, writing, and so much more… My passion is to support children to achieve their communication goals so they can participate in life to the fullest. I provide therapy that is meaningful, functional, and will help children and families beyond the therapy room.”
