Services
I specialize in working with children with language, speech, fluency, social communication or Autism difficulties.
It might be that your child is using fewer words than would be expected for their age, or they are not joining words together to form sentences. They might have difficulty clearly producing some speech sounds. They might have a stammer, difficulty speaking fluently. They might have social communication difficulties or Autism. |
AssessmentInitial assessment of your child's speech, language and communication will be conducted using a range of formal tests and informal observations during play and everyday activities, as appropriate for their age and areas of difficultly. A full case history will also be taken.

Therapy SessionsTherapy sessions last between 45-60 minutes and include feedback to parents and strategies to practise at home between sessions.
Whether the sessions are face-to-face or online they are tailor-made for the child, and include their interests to ensure they are fun and motivating, whilst targeting the areas of need. It is useful to also share strategies with nursery staff, to ensure a holistic therapy approach and better generalization of communication skills. |
Session LocationsI conduct sessions across the Oxford and Buckingham areas. I also deliver online sessions wherever needed.
Face-to-face sessions are conducted in the client's home, to ensure a natural and functional environment, as opposed to a clinic room. Online sessions are available if you live further afield or are self-isolating. If you would like sessions in nursery please ask. Please note I do not work in schools. |
