About speech therapy at Upkar

Speech therapy helps with how a person produces sounds, understands language and puts their thoughts into words. For young children, early therapy can make a big difference to school readiness and confidence.

At Upkar, every child is first assessed one-on-one. The therapist then sets clear, small goals and uses play-based activities that keep children interested, with simple exercises parents can continue at home.

Questions about speech therapy

At what age can a child start speech therapy?

Children can be assessed as early as 18 months if they are not saying single words. There is no need to wait for a child to 'grow out of it' — an assessment simply shows whether support is needed.

Can adults also take speech therapy?

Yes. Adults come for stammering, voice problems, and speech difficulties after illness such as a stroke.
