Diana qualified in 1999 as a Speech and Language Therapist (Postgraduate Diploma, City University). She has predominately worked with children in the preschool years and the foundation stages of education. Her skills include supporting language development with both Makaton (signing) and PECS (visuals). Diana has also helped to support children with social communication difficulties both at home and within their educational environments. Working both on their non-verbal communication and play.
Diana has significant experience working with speech clarity issues. Working with both articulatory (difficulties producing sounds) and phonological (difficulties using the appropriate sound). The direct experience that Diana has received in the community clinic environment, is also supported by the training that she did on the Nuffield dyspraxia approach.
In recent years Diana has provided training for parents and educational settings. Diana has developed a specialist interest in play development, language disorder and bilingualism.
