Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) is a specialized service that helps individuals who have difficulties with communication, speech, language, or swallowing. It supports people of all ages—from children with delayed speech development to adults recovering from strokes or brain injuries. Speech therapists assess the person's needs and create personalized therapy plans to improve areas such as pronunciation, understanding and using language, fluency, voice quality, and social communication. In some cases, they also help with feeding and swallowing difficulties. The goal of SLT is to enhance communication skills, build confidence, and support better participation in daily life.
