Alison Wharton

Member since: 29/04/2015

My early career was in the NHS, but since 2015 I have worked independently. I offer help to children with delayed speech and language skills, and I have extensive experience of working in nurseries, mainstream/special schools and units, as well as in children’s own homes. My caseload includes children on the Autistic spectrum, with learning difficulties and with neurological conditions. I have a particular interest in working with children with eating/drinking and oral motor difficulties. I enjoy planning bespoke programmes of therapy to suit each child. I have additional training in Talk Tools, counselling, Makaton and PECS. Please do get in touch – I look forward to hearing from you.
