Phonological awareness, decoding, spelling and reading comprehension support aligned with the classroom.

Autistic children

Neurodiversity-affirming, child-led support for communication, connection and complex communication needs.

About

Hi, I'm Joy

I'm a Certified Practising Speech Pathologist with over five years of experience across India, Malaysia and Singapore, now based in Willunga, South Australia after completing my Master of Speech Pathology in 2025. I work with children and teens on speech, language, literacy, fluency and communication - in clinics, schools and homes.

Agape means love that serves. That's the heart of this practice: therapy that respects your child, works with your family, and fits into real life. I work closely with teachers and allied health teams, and I speak English, Malay and Tamil.
