I am a highly experienced therapist with over 20 years knowledge and dedication to my role.

I have worked across community clinics, mainstream schools, and specialist settings, supporting children with a wide range of communication needs. I believe strongly in inclusive, practical therapy that helps every child feel heard, understood, and confident in their world.

I am skilled in supporting children with speech sound disorders, language delays, and more complex needs.

I previously led the SaLT service at a special needs school, embedding communication support across the curriculum. Before that, she helped develop whole-school strategies within a mainstream primary setting, and spent over 10 years with the NHS managing complex caseloads and mentoring junior therapists.

I am dedicated to helping every child thrive. I work closely with families to make therapy fun, meaningful, and tailored to each child’s needs and can work in any setting (school, clinic, home & nursery).
