Hi, I’m Ash.

Group of women laughing and talking together indoors.

I’m a paediatric speech pathologist and the founder of Be With Me Speech Therapy.

I started Be With Me because I wanted to work closely and flexibly with young children and the important adults in their lives. I believe the most meaningful progress happens when families and educators feel supported, confident, and involved in their child’s communication journey.

My work is grounded in early intervention and evidence-based practice, with a strong focus on supporting communication through everyday interactions. Rather than therapy feeling like something separate from daily life, I aim to equip parents, caregivers, and educators with practical strategies they can use in real moments, every day.

I support children aged 0–12 years through mobile speech pathology services, working in homes, early learning settings, and the wider community. Based in Albany Creek, I support families across Brisbane’s north-west.
