About: speech therapist
Speech therapists (logopedists) assess and support children and adults with speech sound difficulties, delayed language development, stuttering, or reading and writing problems. For expat families it is worth knowing that most therapists in Montenegro work in Montenegrin, so if your child is bilingual or mainly speaks another language at home, ask which language the therapist can assess and work in. Progress varies from child to child, and no one can guarantee a timeline.
Frequently asked questions
Can a speech therapist work in English or Russian?
Some can, but many work only in the local language. Since speech assessment depends heavily on language, ask before booking.
Is it normal for a bilingual child to start talking later?
Bilingual children follow their own patterns and parents often worry about it. A speech therapist can assess whether things are on track, so it is fine to ask even if you are unsure.
What happens at the first appointment?
The therapist talks with you about your child's development and plays or works with the child to check pronunciation and understanding. Afterwards they explain whether therapy is recommended.
Will we need to practise at home?
Almost always, because short, regular home exercises support progress between sessions. The therapist should show you exactly what to do.
Do speech therapists work with adults?
Some do, for example with stuttering or after a stroke. Check the profile to see which age groups and difficulties they cover.
