I have worked as a speech and language therapist for almost twenty years this includes being employed by  two large NHS Speech and Language Therapy departments, as well as running an independent practice for over 13 years. I have extensive knowledge and experience of assessment and therapy for children with acquired and developmental speech and language disorders including TBI, Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), language delay, speech disorders and autistic spectrum disorder. I am trained in Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS), Lidcombe, Attention Autism, The SCERTS model. I am an Elklan tutor and support educational settings with accredited  training.
