Huarda Valdes-Laribi

Member since: 08/09/2023

I am a Speech and Language Therapist with a background in Psychology, specialising in supporting neurodivergent children, young people and their support systems using a neurodiversity-affirming framework.

My approach is child-led and trauma-informed, and I can offer support with a range of needs including early language and communication development, exploration of neurodivergent identities, behaviours that challenge, friendships, self-advocacy, and creating a supportive environment for neurodivergent minds, as well as consultancy and training to other professionals. I have a particular interest in autism and ADHD.
I am a parent and autistic myself, with a lifetime of lived experience in sensory and communication differences. I come from a multilingual, multiracial and multicultural background, and I am passionate about celebrating diversity in all its forms while acknowledging the complexities of intersecting identities.
