Behind every session, every small win, and every moment of connection - there are people who care deeply about the work they do.

For Megan, being part of STAR Space means witnessing real change in real lives, every single day. And that kind of impact doesn’t just stay in the therapy room - it stays with you.

It’s not just about what we do. It’s about why we do it.

When choosing a speech language therapist, especially in private practice, registration matters. In New Zealand, speech-language therapy is self-regulated through NZSTA making registration an important marker of professional standards, accountability, ongoing learning, and ethical practice. We are proud to be NZSTA-registered at STAR Space -Speech Therapy And Reconnection. 💙

Before you employ, refer or fund speech-language therapy, ask whether the SLT is NZSTA-registered. Speech-language therapy is not regulated under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act in Aotearoa New Zealand. Instead, the profession is self-regulated through the New Zealand Speech-language Therapists’ Association.

NZSTA registration provides an important layer of public protection. Registered speech-language therapists must meet qualification and professional standards, complete ongoing professional development, make annual declarations about their practice, and follow NZSTA’s Code of Ethics and Conduct.

Employing a registered speech-language therapist helps ensure the person you engage is qualified, current, accountable and committed to safe, ethical and culturally responsive practice.
