My name is Sophie and I have worked as a paediatric SALT for almost 14 years and I love it! I currently work for 3 days in the NHS as a highly specialised speech and language therapist for children with Cleft Lip and Palate and Velopharyngeal Dysfunction. I have specialised in this field for 8 years but also have experience in a range of Children’s Communication Needs.

I live in Melton with my family and have 3 children who are now all at school. I am happy to travel around Leicestershire and can see children at home or in preschool/school. I can offer one off visits or ongoing therapy depending on the child’s needs.

Training:

BSC (Hons) Clinical Language Sciences (2011) Leeds Metropolitan University.

MSC Cleft and Speech (2020) University of Sheffield.

I have set up a very informal website which you can find here-
