Initial Consultation
Initial Consultation
Before we start, it's really important that we find out if we are a good fit for each other!
I offer a free consultation. This will allow me to understand what you want and for you to understand what I can offer.
This can be done via email or over the phone.
Consultations typically last 30 mins.

Assessment
Full and comprehensive assessments for speech language and communication concerns.

Assessments can usually be carried out 1-2 weeks after your initial consultation.
Appointments are offered in your own home or your child's school / nursery at a time that is convenient to you, even on weekends!

You can also choose to receive a summary report from your assessment or a detailed report with recommendations and targets

Therapy
I believe therapy should be fun and exciting, but also easy enough for you to continue with in your own time. I work closely with you to set goals and targets that work for you.
I use a range of evidence based approaches when carrying out therapy sessions.
