Actively taking new clients

My passion is making Speech & Language Therapy fun & functional by tailoring sessions to the needs & interests of the individual. I endeavour to enable children to communicate to their full potential. I believe that all children have the right to be listened to and be heard.

I qualified in 2006. I currently work in the NHS as part of an Autism assessment team as well as running my independent practice.

I have a vast amount of experience supporting autistic children and their families. I use play to engage children and develop core communication skills such as anticipation, cause & effect, joint attention which are all pre-requisites to communication.

I use Alternative and Augmentative Communication Systems (AAC) including Makaton, communication books and Grid 3 to support understanding of language, expression & social skills.
I support children with speech delay/disorder and childhood apraxia of speech. Please make contact for further information
