Speech Therapy in Kerrisdale, Vancouver
Kerrisdale home visits. Online sessions are also available across British Columbia.
We provide speech-language therapy for Kerrisdale children and adults, including multilingual families and students in French Immersion.
For a Kerrisdale family using different languages at home and school, communication goals may span both settings. We make room for that context, alongside the needs of adults looking for speech or language support.
Language, Literacy, and French Immersion Support
We help families understand their child’s communication needs and choose practical goals. Support can include French-language therapy, literacy skills, and strategies for understanding instructions or telling stories.
A child may be able to chat comfortably but need help understanding a longer explanation, organising a written response, or retelling a story. We look at the tasks that are difficult and plan support around them. Families can also ask about working in English or French with our bilingual speech-language pathologist.
Adult Speech and Language Therapy
For adults, we offer accent modification for speaking situations such as presentations and discussions. We also support communication after a stroke or neurological change, with goals built around daily conversation.
A session might involve preparing an explanation for a seminar or practicing a conversation with a family member. Following a neurological change, we include the communication priorities of the person receiving therapy and, where appropriate, their caregivers.
Home Visits in Kerrisdale
Home practice can use a book your child already enjoys or a conversation you have every day. Tell us who needs support and what you hope to work on; we can discuss visit arrangements and next steps. Our pricing page explains rates and notes that travel fees may apply.

In Quilchena Park, compare things you notice: which tree is taller, or which flower is brighter?
