Welcome to Smart Speech Therapy
Each of our clients has the potential to reach their own level of ‘smarts’. There are many areas of smarts including speech smarts, social smarts, understanding smarts, literacy smarts, fluency smarts and more!
Our goal is to support them to reach their ultimate smarts level in their individual areas of need. By strengthening their smarts, individuals are able to communicate effectively and as a result, create more meaningful connections with others which builds their self-esteem and ability to achieve their fullest potential.
With almost 10 years of experience, Jessica Singer is the Principal Speech Therapist who leads a highly skilled team based in Edgecliff, NSW.

Why SMART?
Specialised
As fully qualified speech therapists and members of Speech Pathology Australia, we are specialised in supporting individuals with communication difficulties to the best of our ability. As a team, we have several areas of special interest such as social skills, early intervention, selective mutism, literacy, speech sound disorders and more!
Memorable
Our therapy sessions are memorable in that they are dynamic, engaging and of high quality. We love how we also become a memory in people’s lives as they think back to their individual communication journeys and how we helped to facilitate the successful lives that they now lead.
Adaptable
As experienced therapists, we understand that all individuals are different and have varying needs during assessment and therapy. We adapt our sessions to enable those with challenging behaviours, high anxiety or any other challenges to not only participate but gain something along the way.
Relatable
We understand how busy your lives get and don’t want to add any work or pressure to that, so we make sure to relate strategies, techniques and homework to your everyday lives. This makes it easy to apply these follow-up tasks in between sessions when you’re on the go and during regular routines.
Top-Notch
Our strong team regularly meets and problem-solves together to ensure that we are consistently providing our best to our clients. We enjoy sharing professional development, resources, experiences and ideas to build our knowledge and expertise. This translates into a top-notch service for our clients!
Workshops and Screenings
Our workshops are designed for teachers and educators about how to support social interaction skills in the classroom. We present evidence-based strategies and concepts to help manage challenging behaviours and those who struggle with emotional regulation.
We also run cost-effective and efficient screening programs, available both in preschool and school settings. This allows parents to determine whether their child could benefit from speech therapy.
