I have the best job in the world. I get to work with incredible children and young people and their parents. Together we unlock the communication skills that will equip this person for the rest of their lives.
We work through play. We will choose the toys and the strategies that help them into a regulated state for learning. From this calm, safe space, speech and language skills will start to reveal themselves.
For older children, I work in the school setting, forging relationships with the teaching staff who will continue our work outside of therapy sessions. We work on the language skills that impact upon their literacy, learning and social interaction with others.
I support children who might need help with:
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)
I am a neurodiversity-affirming SLT. I will always respect your child's differences. We will build trust and confidence whilst expanding your child's speech, language and communication repertoire.
I am trained and registered in Natural Language Acquisition and Gestalt Language Processing. To find out more about these approaches, see my page on autism.
