Amy Finnigan

I completed my Bachelor of Health Sciences and Master of Speech Pathology at La Trobe University in 2013. Since this time, I have had extensive experience working with preschool and school aged children who have a range of speech, language, fluency, literacy, and social communication difficulties. I have a passion for working in collaboration with the child and other members of their team (e.g., parents, educators, health professionals), to support the progress towards their goals.

I enjoy making and implementing creative therapy activities that align with each child’s personality and interests.

As a mum of twin toddlers, I also have a keen interest in early language development and have first-hand knowledge of designing and using home-therapy language activities.
