Frequently Asked Questions

Does my child need Speech and Language Therapy?

I offer a free, short consultation which can help clarify whether an assessment would be useful. Please see the Links in the footer of the website for some advice on ages and stages of child development.

My child has been referred to the NHS for Speech and Language Therapy. Can we still see you?

Yes. I recognise the frustration of long waiting lists and the importance of receiving advice quickly. I can offer advice or therapy until you receive an appointment with the NHS. Once you receive an appointment with the NHS you can still chose to continue with private therapy.

An NHS Speech Therapist sees the Statemented children at our school. What else can you offer?

I can offer universal advice which will make your setting more communication friendly and benefit all children in your school. I can also support the other children whom you have concerns about and give advice to staff on how best to support these children within the school environment.
