She can see a speech therapist. It's the same thing as a speech pathologist; I'm not sure why they are called by two different names except that it's usually called speech pathology when the evaulation is done.

Also, there's a pretty good chance she will eventually get over it even if she doesn't get speech therapy. But, that could take a long time, so it's probably better if she can get therapy.

I'm not 100% sure about it, but she may have to see a doctor to get a referral to a speech therapist. I hope she has health insurance, though, maybe she has covered through her parents.

yeah its called a speech pathologist. spelling is a little bad but you should get the jist and nub loll

Oh, this is so sad. Please find a reputable speech pathologist and discuss the situation. The speech pathologist should also refer you to a mental health professional as she will need treatment for the depression.

She needs to see a speech therapist.
