Thea Peterson

(Principal) B.Sp Thy (Qld 1971)

Thea has more than 30 years experience as a Speech Pathologist and has specialised in the treatment of adults with voice problems in a Private Practice environment since 1984. Her patients include leading TV and radio personalities, teachers, lawyers, doctors, business people, singers, fitness instructors, clergy and call centre operators.

She believes that it is imperative to look at the whole person when treating problems of the voice i.e. lifestyle, occupational requirements, general health, emotional and social factors.

Over many years in Private Practice Thea has worked closely with most of Perth’s leading Ear, Nose and Throat surgeons, frequently being present when patients are having the condition of their larynx reviewed.

Thea has run workshops and lectures for various organizations including Curtin University Speech Pathology students, Australian Speech Pathologists Association (WA Branch), WA Singing Teacher’s Association, St John’s Ambulance, Department of Public Prosecution lawyers, Teachers groups, Fitness Instructor’s National Conference, Theology students Murdock University, Physical Education Student Teacher’s Edith Cowan University and a Private Auctioneers Group.
