In this weeks episode of The Playful Psychologist Podcast, I am joined by Mariah Apostolopoulos from Sound Adventures to explore speech delay. Mariah is a speech pathologist based in Melbourne. This episode will explore the following points:

• What is the role of a speech pathologist?
• What is a speech delay and are there different types of delay?
• What is the difference between a receptive and expressive speech delay and what are some things to look out for?
• In Australia, what is the referral process to see a speech pathologist and when should parents seek support?
• When should parents start to consider speech therapy for pronunciation difficulties?
