Sprouting Together to Make a Difference

  • Grace Murray

    DIRECTOR / Senior Speech Pathologist

    “When I heard about speech pathology as a career path, I instantly felt drawn to it.”

    Grace’s holistic and relationship-driven approach to speech therapy is woven into the culture at Sprout Learning. Her passion for working with and supporting children inspired her to earn a Bachelor of Speech Pathology at Charles Sturt University. Since then, she has immersed herself in continuous professional development to offer the best possible care to children and their families.

    Grace’s friendly, relaxed, and play-based therapy style helps her build trust with families and guide them towards achieving their goals. The look on a child’s face—along with the evident joy of their parents—when they master a new skill is a rewarding reminder of why she does what she does.

    In both life and therapy, Grace believes in celebrating the small things and having fun. If you work with Grace, you’ll experience this firsthand.
