Speech Pathology Myth Busters

Speech pathologists often encounter misconceptions like “therapy is only for lisps or stutters,” “it won’t help with reading or writing,” “AAC devices prevent verbal speech,” or “they’ll grow out of it - just wait and see.”


In this episode of Growing Up with A Growing Understanding Speech Pathology, Practice Director Lauren Haskins and Speech Pathologist Paige Horton debunk these common myths and explore the true scope of speech and language support. You’ll hear how Paige’s journey into the profession shapes her inclusive, family-centred approach and learn why speech pathology covers much more than clarity, addressing language, literacy, social communication, and feeding.


Discover how AAC tools actually expand a child’s ability to communicate, why early intervention is so important, and simple strategies like modelling and recasting to reinforce learning at home. If you’ve ever wondered when and why to seek support, this conversation will give you the clarity and confidence you need.
