Melissa Saliba

Speech Pathologist, SA
Panellists have generously contributed to our CPD webinars. Please note that they are not employed by MHPN, and we are unable to contact them or provide referrals on your behalf. Please do not send us patient details.

Melissa is a Certified Practicing Speech Pathologist who brings over twelve years of clinical experience gained from the Health, Disability, Education and Youth Justice sectors, and a lived experience of a sibling who has complex disabilities.

Melissa previously worked in early intervention and having her own children prompted her to complete a masters thesis examining the link between parental responsiveness and children’s language development.

Melissa currently works in both youth justice and a high school setting, applying her passion of advocating for, empowering, and improving the outcomes of children, young people and their families, particularly those from vulnerable and disadvantaged backgrounds.
