About Me

I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist in 2000 from City University, London.  I specialise in autism, Gestalt Language Processing and AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication). 

 

I am the author of 4 books: 'Who's Afraid of AAC?', 'Navigating AAC', 'Selfcare for Allied Health Professionals' and the upcoming 'Gestalt Language Processing: Supporting Autistic and Neurodivergent Children with their Natural Language Acquisition', all published by Routledge. 

 

I provide supervision for other Speech and Language Therapists who are developing their skills in AAC and GLP.

 

I am child-led and play-based in my approach.  I work with closely with parents to build their confidence in their ability to support their child.  My work prioritises trust and connection, and our sessions are typically joyful and fun.

 

​I am always happy to have an informal chat about your child’s needs, so do get in touch.
