ABOUT COMMUNITALK
Vicki Ridgeway
Principal Speech Pathologist
and Director
Vicki Ridgeway has been empowering communication across South Sydney for over 30 years and has had long-running clinics in the St George and Sutherland Shire areas.
Vicki’s journey to becoming a speech pathologist began in her childhood when she witnessed the profession’s immense impact on a close family member. This early inspiration led her to move from the country to the city at 18, driven by her dream.
After graduating from the University of Sydney, Vicki gained valuable experience in disability services, community health services, and literacy support units while building her long-running speech pathology clinics in the St George and Sutherland Shire areas.
OUR APPROACH
Family-Centred Care
As a paediatric therapist, Vicki prioritises a family-centred approach and compassionate client care. She co-founded the Shire Speech and Language Centre in 2003 before founding Communitalk Speech Pathology in 2019. Under her leadership, Communitalk provides comprehensive speech pathology services for young children, teenagers, and adults.
As a business owner, Vicki wears many hats to ensure the success of her clinic. Her dedication to lifelong learning and staying abreast of industry advancements is critical in keeping her clinic at the forefront of evidence-based practice.
Her passion for empowering others through effective communication continues to drive her mission at Communitalk Speech Pathology, supporting the Sutherland Shire to communicate with confidence.
