SPEECH PATHOLOGIST

Jen Fraser is a paediatric speech pathologist with over 26 years experience. She has helped children and their families achieve success with a wide range of communication, learning, literacy and behavioural challenges. She is committed to empowering your child and their support network so that they achieve their potential while building invaluable self esteem and confidence.

Her innovative, practical and surprisingly simple strategies have been successfully used by parents, teachers and children across Australia. As a result, hundreds of children who previously “struggled” to learn are now enjoying the experience of effective and satisfying learning.

Jen has a genuine desire to inspire and guide children and their families through their individual learning and communication challenges, evident by her energy, warmth and authenticity. Her philosophy is that for a child to engage in learning, we must find out what works uniquely for them and use these strengths to build skills. This approach supports a child’s self-esteem and allows them to acknowledge their strengths.

Prior to starting Speech Pathology Solutions in Sydney, Jen operated a private practice on the Sunshine Coast for 16 years. She worked across the areas of health, education, assessment, research and development, both interstate and overseas and has an extensive background in developing successful learning assessments and resources. Many of these are currently utilised throughout Australia and overseas and include the Dyslexia Screening Test, Adult Dyslexia Screening Test, Launch Into Reading Success and other UK Preschool programs. She was also a finalist in the Queensland Rural, Regional and Remote Women’s Network, Businesswoman of the Year Awards (2013) based on her development of the Eye Can Spell programme.

Jen maintains constant professional development as a speech pathologist for kids through conferences and workshops and has extra qualifications in stuttering, Neuro Linguistic Programming (Masters Level) and Results Acceleration (Masters Level).
