I qualified as a speech and language therapist in 2003 and have 10 years’ experience of working for the NHS, offering assessment and treatment for children aged 2-11 years with a variety of communication difficulties. I have worked in a range of settings including clinics, special schools, nurseries and mainstream schools. I am now working independently offering a flexible service to individual families or schools. I have particular interest in the areas of language delay/disorder and phonological (speech) delay/disorder.

I live in Liphook, Hampshire, and work around the Surrey/Hampshire/West Sussex borders. The area covered includes Alton, Farnham, Waterlooville, Petersfield, Petworth and the surrounding area. I offer appointments in your own home or your child’s school.

If you would like to talk about your child and how I may be able to help, please do not hesitate to contact me.
