Helping you uncover the root cause of speech & orofacial myology difficulties.
Does this sound familiar?
People struggle to understand what my child is saying?
They’re always breathing through their mouth - even when they’re fast asleep. Sleep is restless. Snoring. Waking tired.
They just can’t seem to let go of finger/dummy sucking.
Chewing certain foods looks harder than it should.
If you’ve been nodding along, you’re not alone.
Many families share these same worries in late-night Google searches, and Facebook groups, wondering ‘is this a phase, or is something else going on?’ These patterns are sometimes linked to how the mouth, tongue, face muscles are working together.

Why families choose Khuluma
We don’t just focus on the obvious signs - like unclear sounds or oral habits.
We look beneath the surface to explore why these patterns are showing up in the first place.
With nearly 15 years’ experience as a Speech Pathologist, now with specialised training in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy, and my own perspective as a parent who’s walked this road, we bring a whole picture lens: not just speech - but how speech and all other related pieces connect.
That means:
Your child isn’t treated in isolation
You’re not left to join the dots between professionals
Therapy feels collaborative, not confusing
It’s about giving families a path forward that makes sense - one that’s evidence-informed, realistic for home-life and always grounded in compassion.
