Hi, I’m Melody!

A Snapshot:

I’m a creative and compassionate neurodiversity-affirming therapist with 15years experience. My specialism is Autism and complex needs, including supporting Gestalt Language Processors (GLP) and those needing communication aids (AAC).

More detail!:

I specialise in supporting neurodivergent individuals, and having ADHD myself I aim to celebrate and advocate for strengths and differences whilst understanding first hand some of the difficulties that people can face.

I work in a child-led and play-based way, focusing on connection, engagement and overall wellbeing. I look at communication skills being a piece of the wider puzzle which includes regulation, environment, and family life. I liaise closely with families to pick therapy goals and always work at the child’s pace, developing functional communication skills.

For therapists/supervisees:

I provide a safe welcoming reflective space. My supervision is collaborative, strength-based, and adaptable to your unique needs, with a focus on wellbeing and work-life balance.
