I’m a Clinical Lead in autism and a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist with 15 years of experience in the NHS and 10 years in independent practice. I work with children and young people (CYP) in clinics, family homes, and educational settings. I support CYP with a range of speech, language, and communication needs- please see below.

I also provide private autism diagnostic assessments within a multidisciplinary team alongside paediatricians and psychologists to assess and diagnose autism in CYP, following NICE guidelines.

My approach is holistic, person-centred, and neuroaffirmative—ensuring every session is engaging, meaningful, and tailored to each individual.

Beyond clinical work, I have authored a chapter in a book “A Parent’s Guide to Autism Diagnosis-What to Expect and How to Support Your Child”, delivered autism training in India, and collaborated with BBC Tiny Happy People sharing practical communication tips.

Please get in touch if you feel I can help:)
