Jodee Simpson AuDHD SLT

My work is naturally neurodivergent affirming and trauma sensitive, which puts the person and their support network at the centre of care.

Therapy might include supporting people to understand, fully participate and express their views meaningfully using their preferred communication style to promote self-awareness, autonomy, and self-advocacy. This might involve working directly with an individual or coaching / training their support network and family to meet their communication, sensory or swallowing needs.

I am autistic with lived experience of trauma, which means I can connect with people in non-traditional ways and am not affected by MH stigma. Families report how validated they feel when working with me and that I can find innovative and intuitive ways to connect with all sorts of communicators,.My ability to make others feel safe and part of their own solutions is my greatest strength.

My specialisms: adults / children, complex swallowing, learning disability,/autism, MH.
