Find the stuttering treatment that works for you.

Our qualified team of specialist speech language therapists are all members of the New Zealand Speech Therapy Association (NZSTA), providing internationally accepted and effective therapy for clients.

Individual therapy

We know that sometimes it can be hard to get access to the treatment that you need. That is why we offer appointments in Greenlane and Albany, and via video conferencing for
those who live outside of Auckland.

Our Films About Stuttering

In 2020 we made two films about stuttering.
Our shorter film, ‘Windows into stuttering’ provides insights from people who stutter to help raise awareness.
‘Stuttering: Young Kiwis Share Their Stories’ is aimed at educators but there’s something for everyone.
