I am a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist in South West London with over 13 years experience working with children with a wide range of speech, language and communication needs.
I provide assessment and therapy at home for young children, typically aged 2-7 years. If your child falls outside this age range or has a difficulty not listed below please do get in touch as I may still be able to offer support.
I work with children with a wide range of difficulties including;
Delayed language development
Developmental Language Disorder (DLD)
Phonological disorders
Motor speech disorders
Developmental Verbal Dyspraxia
Neurodevelopmental disorders including Cerebral Palsy
Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Global developmental delay
I also provide speech and language development checks for young children with advice and support on how to help them continue to achieve their full potential.
I am based in East Sheen and visit homes in Barnes, Richmond, Kew, and most of South West London.
Assessment
A full assessment of your child's speech and language development, usually taking 1-2 hours, in your own home. A school or nursery visit may also be required. A written report is provided, outlining what therapy if any is recommended, and giving some initial guidance on how to help your child.
Therapy
If appropriate, following assessment, you will receive an individually tailored therapy programme. This may involve regular sessions at your own home. Therapy sessions are play based, building on your child's strengths and interests. Sessions can also be provided at school or nursery if recommended.
Developmental Check
A short screening session for children up to 3 years of age. These sessions are useful where there are no specific concerns with your child's speech and language, but you would like to check their development is on track.
