I am a highly specialist paediatric SLT with 14+ years clinical experience. Since 2011 I’ve worked in a well-established NHS team. Within this team I have developed clinical skills within preschool and primary school cohorts.

My most recent roles are being lead clinician for a preschool service and working within a multi-disciplinary team to assess children as part of the Autism diagnostic process. Whilst in these roles I developed a broad experience of working with children presenting with a range of communication difficulties. I advocate a holistic approach to assessment and interventions whilst keeping the child at the centre. I believe in the importance of empowering parents to support their children in order to enable them to reach their full potential.

I aim to provide assessments for children in order to develop individualised treatment plans. I am trained in a range of evidence based therapeutic interventions which inform my practice.
