Aisyah is a Speech-Language Therapist with over 15 years of clinical experience working with both children and adults across hospitals, community settings, nursing homes, day activity centres, and home-based care. Throughout her career, she has worked across a diverse range of healthcare and community environments, including the National University Hospital (NUH), KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH), AWWA, private practice, and home-based services.

She has worked with individuals presenting with conditions including aphasia, dysarthria, apraxia of speech, speech and language difficulties, social communication challenges, dysphagia and feeding difficulties. Her experience includes both paediatric and adult populations, as well as clients with developmental and neurological conditions.

Aisyah takes a personalised and practical approach to therapy, recognising that each individual has different needs, goals and circumstances. She works closely with clients, families and caregivers to develop meaningful strategies that can be incorporated into everyday life. Her experience in home-based and community settings has strengthened her focus on functional communication, participation and quality of life beyond the therapy setting.

In addition to direct clinical work, Aisyah has experience in parent and caregiver coaching, professional education, clinical supervision and mentoring. She has conducted workshops for parents and multidisciplinary professionals, mentored speech therapists and students on clinical placements, and contributed to quality improvement and research initiatives.
