I’m Laura, a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist with over 20 years’ experience supporting children and young people with communication differences.

I help with speech sound development, understanding and using language, and supporting reluctant talkers or children with learning differences. My approach is practical, family led and focused on helping children thrive wherever they are.

I specialise in supporting autistic children and their families, helping them understand and embrace their unique communication styles whether that is spoken, gestural or visual. I support children’s language development, emotional wellbeing and understanding how communication, behaviour, and sensory needs connect.

Autism Assessments
Alongside my Speech and Language Therapy work, I work with Beth, a Clinical Psychologist, to provide autism assessments through our service, Understanding Minds. Families can access a supportive, child centred, neuroaffirming assessment pathway. If you would like more information or wish to discuss an assessment, please contact understanding-minds@outlook.com.
