I am a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist with 12 years of clinical experience, specialising in adult acquired communication and swallowing difficulties, particularly following stroke and other neurological conditions. I am HCPC-registered and have extensive NHS experience.

I have extensive experience supporting people with aphasia and other acquired communication difficulties, alongside specialist training in dysphagia and over 10 years’ experience assessing and treating swallowing difficulties.

My approach is individualised, evidence-based and focused on each person’s personal goals and everyday communication needs. I am passionate about helping people rebuild confidence, maximise their independence and improve their quality of life.

I also value involving families and carers, providing practical advice and strategies to support communication and swallowing beyond therapy sessions.
