Testimonials

I was referred to Gwyneth by my ENT specialist for chronic laryngitis. Learning how to re-wire my muscle memory to speak in the “correct” way is not easy but Gwyneth is great with going through the recovery step-by-step. Each step is explored thoroughly and practised such that at the end of the day when you piece all the puzzles together, the big picture becomes very clear and it makes sense. Her ability to detect the countless nuances in my voice is uncanny as well.

After attending this speech therapy, I felt that my confidence had grown a lot as last time, I had always been scared to present on stage or talk to a big crowd. However, when Ms Gwyneth became my Speech Therapist, I learnt how to control my speech so I would not stutter as much. Not only is Ms Gwyneth’s way of teaching effective, her lessons are also entertaining as after I had completed a few tasks, we would usually play a game, whether it be a card game or a board game. Hence, thanks to her coaching, I have grown a lot braver than I used to be and dared to speak up more in front of my class and school. I would always look forward to attending my therapy sessions.

Emmet was 3 yrs coming to 4 when i decided to have him assessed for stuttering. I was on the fence for a while since 2 yrs old, due to the fact that he is still young and he might outgrow it, but I followed my gut feeling as I can see something is not right compared to his peers. Knowing how to talk confidently is important, So I decided not to wait any longer. Approaching Gwyneth is so easy. I left her a message and she called back, answering every question I have with no obligation. We decided to start after the assessment, as she mentioned with my child’s temperament, the program is suitable. Emmet love coming for sessions, and I have seen great improvement. Throughout the journey she has taught me how to manage his stutters. He is stable now after 8 months without much stutters, but will continue to monitor closely and I definitely know I have Gwyneth behind my back if I need help again. Thank you so much, forever grateful for your guidance.

When I first reached out to Gwyneth in August 2018, as a concerned mother who couldn’t come to the terms that her first born is not able to even finish a small sentence without blocking and repeating, I was worried that he will not be able to talk fluently ever. But it took only one meeting with Gwyneth which made me realize, it’s nothing that my son can’t overcome. Acceptance over powered denial and negativity turned into positivity. With Gwyneth’s help my son (10 years old) is now able to talk confidently in mere 6 months with a very few repetitions applying the techniques taught by this great lady. She guided both myself and my son throughout and emphasized on how important is parents involvement along with the therapy. Ibrahim and I are grateful for all your help and guidance

My boy was 5 when I noticed him not speaking clearly.  At first we thought it is out of excitement he rushes off.  One of my friends referred me to consult Gwyneth.  When I went to meet her I was shocked to know that he has got stuttering and there are various types in stutters like repetitions, blocks, pauses etc
Gwyneth is a well experienced and knowledgeable speech therapist.  She was gentle and kind with kids which made my son feel at ease.  Her sessions included activities and games which my son used to look forward to.
Gwyneth was very friendly in the sessions.  She guided me very well how to do sessions at home and followed up regularly.  I was really happy to see the progress in my son gradually.  Now 6 months later my son is able to speak clearly without any stutters and with more confidence.  All thanks to Gwyneth, without her I wouldn’t even have realised about my son’s actual problem.

Bryan (5 years old) - Stuttering

Bryan started to show signs of severe stuttering when he was three years old. He was blocking, repeating and stretching his words. I was having the hope that the stuttering would disappear on its own and decided to wait and observe.

However, my wish didn’t come true. The stuttering persisted when he turned four. There were ‘good days’ when the stuttering was mild, but it was always followed by those ‘bad days’ when he struggled with every single word that he said.

As his mummy, it was heart breaking seeing him want to express himself so much but was unable to. Bryan also showed frustration. He would pant and jump to force words out. He would also give up in between his words. This was the turning point and I realized Bryan needed help.

I googled online trying to look for some reputable and experienced Speech Therapists. Thank God I found “A Million Things to Say” and Gwyneth who has more than 14 years of experience in this field. After the first assessment session with her, I knew she was the one that I could fully trust.

A few months into therapy with Gwyneth, Bryan showed significant improvement in his speech. The Lidcombe program worked well for him. Today Bryan is able to talk fluently with little or no stuttering. The outcome is much better than I expected. I would strongly recommend Gwyneth to all the parents whose kids suffer from stuttering. Start treatment early!

After going through the arduous journey of transitioning from male to female, meeting Gwyneth was a blessing.  She adds the finishing touch to my femininity by giving transgender individuals like me a voice (literally).  Thank you Gwyneth for the warmth and gentle guidance you have given me.

Gwyneth has been fantastic from my first appointment with her. After some invasive medical treatment and a long period of stress, I was having difficulty with vocal range and fatigue. I was diagnosed with some vocal cord atrophy and with her specialist knowledge Gwyneth gave me the tools to be able to use my voice again to its full potential. I am now so much happier when I sing, can hit the notes I want to and am no longer suffering from debilitating vocal fatigue. Would highly recommend and I’m extremely grateful for all her advice!

It was just before his 3rd birthday that Miller first started showing signs of stuttering, repetition and blocking. Most disheartening were the incidences of jaw locking. At first I thought it was just a childhood phase but as his symptoms worsened I realised he needed professional help.
Miller progressed through the Lidcombe program well. The sessions at home required a lot of discipline on our part but Miller nearly always enjoyed the extra attention through the reading and play-based activities. I’m very pleased to report he is now free of any speech problems.
Gwyneth was awesome from beginning to end. Experienced, patient, always clear with feedback and instructions. Miller felt at ease and always loved delving into Singapore’s best-stocked toy cupboard.

Lauren (4 years old) and Noelle - Articulation Therapy

Gwyneth is god-sent! Our little one was 4 when she started her speech therapy, and she took an instant liking to Gwyneth. Gwyneth consistently put in real effort for each and every session, personalizing the games and activities for the specific sound errors my daughter was making.

My daughter enjoyed each session thoroughly and always looked forward to seeing her favourite “Ms Gwyneth”. She had such a positive association with the therapy and she was never reluctant to attend.

As a parent, I was so pleased to see frequent real progress. It was wonderful to watch my daughter grow in confidence and I can honestly attribute this to the hard work that Gwyneth puts into each session.
