Speech and Language Therapist

Speech and language therapy allows children and adults to communicate to the best of their ability and flourish within their community.  To communicate is a vital part of expressing needs, wants and ideas. I believe increasing awareness of communication through play is a crucial step for children developing their understanding of the world around them.

My favourite word is ‘ineffable’; this means too great to be expressed in words. Sometimes life can be more than words, consumed around feelings and energies greater than us.
