Messages

is about coming alongside others.

Lindsay Potgieter

Speech Pathologist

Lindsay has had over 15 years' experience working with school-aged children and knows how important speech and oral language skills are for learning, literacy development (reading and spelling) and social development (interacting with others).

Lindsay believes that therapy should be fun and engaging as well as meaningful and relevant to the client's life. Getting to know the client's individual interests and strengths is important.

Lindsay enjoys being a wife and mother of three children and is aware of how busy today's family life is.
