Hi, I’m Natasha, a Speech-Language Therapist, mother, wife and the founder of NP Speech Therapy.

I established my practice in 2010 and, over the past 15+ years, I have had the privilege of working with children and adults with a wide range of communication, feeding and swallowing difficulties. My journey has also included tutoring undergraduate Speech-Language Therapy students, which has been a rewarding opportunity to share my knowledge and experience for the profession with the upcoming generation of therapists.

As both a therapist and a mother, I understand that every person and every family is different. I believe in providing compassionate, evidence-based therapy that is personalised to your needs, goals and everyday life.

My goal is always to help people communicate with greater confidence, participate more fully in everyday life and improve their overall quality of life.

Whether supporting a young child to develop their communication skills, helping a parent understand and support their child, or working with an adult with communication or swallowing difficulties, I work alongside you every step of the way.

After establishing my practice in South Africa, I am excited to continue this work here in New Zealand. I am registered with the New Zealand Speech-language Therapists’ Association (NZSTA) and the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA).

I offer personalised 1:1 consultations in East Auckland, as well as online therapy, allowing me to reach and support more people who may benefit from speech-language therapy.

My approach

Compassionate

Every person and every family is different. Therapy starts with listening.

Evidence-based

Proven methods drawn from 15+ years of clinical and teaching experience.

Personalised

Goals built around your needs and everyday life, in person or online.
