Actively taking new clients

I have over ten years of experience working in a variety of paediatric settings. I specialise in early intervention for children with severe and complex needs.

I have a specialist interest in Autism. I am a firm believer in individualised approaches as every child is unique! I also have a keen interest in AAC. ( Alternative and Augmentative systems) and have experience with eye gaze and other technology.

I am passionate about creating a fun and meaningful approach with the children/ young people I support. Therapy is individualised, functional and uses evidence- based approaches. I support pre-school children through to young adults with a range of needs, e.g. attention and listening difficulties, understanding of language, extending language, problem solving, social skills and executive function difficulties. I have written a number of training packages and always ensure that I collaborate with parents/carers and teaching staff.
