Speech Therapy Phnom Penh: Helping Children Speak With Confidence

When a child struggles to speak clearly, it can affect every part of their life—learning in school, making friends, and feeling confident. In Phnom Penh, speech therapy at OrbRom Center is helping children overcome these challenges and find their voice.

The Impact of Speech Difficulties on Daily Life

Speech and language difficulties can cause:

• Misunderstandings in the classroom

• Frustration when trying to share ideas

• Social withdrawal and fewer friendships

• Lower self-esteem and participation

These challenges can feel overwhelming for parents and children alike, but with the right support, progress is possible.

How to Know if Your Child Needs Speech Therapy

Some speech issues are part of normal development, but persistent challenges may need intervention. Look for:

• Delayed talking compared to peers

• Difficulty pronouncing certain sounds

• Trouble forming complete sentences

• Challenges understanding instructions

• Avoidance of speaking in groups

If you notice these signs, a professional evaluation is the best next step.

Supporting Khmer and English Speakers

Many children in Phnom Penh are bilingual, speaking both Khmer and English. While this is an asset, it can sometimes lead to:

• Mixing words from both languages

• Uneven vocabulary growth

• Pronunciation challenges in one or both languages

Our bilingual therapists help children strengthen both languages for clear and confident communication.

Involving Parents in the Therapy Process

We believe parents are essential partners in speech therapy. We coach families to:

• Ask WH-questions to encourage conversation

• Model correct pronunciation naturally

• Create language-rich environments at home

• Use daily routines for speech practice
