Based in Milton Keynes
Speech and Language Therapist
I am delighted to be a part the Magic Words team. Speech, language and communication have been lifelong interests for me and I feel privileged, after 22 years in education, to have had the opportunity to retrain and follow this dream.
In my opinion, communicating effectively is key to gaining independence and achieving the best of your ability in life. Through fun, functional, personalised and interactive therapy, I aim to accomplish this for all of those I work with.
My favourite word is “Melange” which means ‘a varied mixture’. It reminds me to always look holistically at the bigger picture to make sure no stone is left unturned.
