Who we are
We are the largest independent provider of speech-language therapy services in the Central region.  Our vision is to make it easier for people to get speech-language therapy when they need it.  Our mission is to provide speech-language therapy that transforms lives.

No GP referral needed 
If you have a communication difficulty, or you know someone who has a communication difficulty, you can get in touch with us directly by phone on 0508 SPEECHIE or by email at office@speechie.co.nz.

Where to get help
Get help in our Centre in Palmerston North, from our Regional Mobile Service in the Horowhenua, Kapiti, Manawatu, Otaki, Rangitikei, Tararua, Wairarapa and Whanganui Districts, or from our real-time online (telehealth) service anywhere in New Zealand.   We offer home and school visits in and around main centres at no additional cost.

Special offers for children
We discount initial assessment appointments for children by 50%, and we conduct a  comprehensive speech, language and communication screening FREE of charge for all children we see, regardless of the presenting concerns.  We offer payment plans and will never charge interest or account fees.  We do these things to enable families to get an independent assessment for their child, including a written report with results and a pathway forward to help their child, plus any referral letters needed.

​We also provide free hearing screenings for children at our Centre in Palmerston North.
