speech and language therapy sessions

I offer a wide range of evidence-based interventions tailored to meet the needs of children, teenagers and adults. I specialise in delivering targeted, engaging and effective therapy sessions that address speech, language, communication and social-emotional challenges. Whether through individual or group sessions, my goal is to empower individuals to communicate confidently and thrive in all aspects of life.

 

 

Types of sessions

​

​

1. Social skills programmes

I use proven social skills programmes, such as Talkabout for Teenagers, to help young people develop the skills they need to build meaningful relationships and navigate social situations.

 

These programmes focus on:

 

• Understanding social rules and expectations  

• Improving conversation skills  

• Building self-awareness and self-esteem  

• Developing empathy and perspective-taking  

• Managing conflict and resolving misunderstandings  

 

These sessions are interactive and practical, ensuring participants can apply what they learn in real-life scenarios.  

​

​

2. Emotional regulation programmes

Emotional regulation is key to managing stress, anxiety and frustration. 

​

These interventions include:

 

• Teaching strategies for self-regulation (eg mindfulness, breathing techniques)  

• Developing problem-solving and coping skills  

• Building emotional vocabulary and awareness  

• Supporting individuals to recognise and respond to the emotions of others  

 

These programmes are particularly beneficial for individuals with Autism, ADHD or social communication difficulties.

​

​

3. Language

For those struggling with language comprehension and expression, I use evidence-based language therapy.

​

My  interventions focus on:

 

• Expanding vocabulary and word knowledge  

• Improving sentence structure and grammar  

• Enhancing listening and comprehension skills  

• Supporting narrative and storytelling abilities

​

4. One-to-one sessions

For individuals who require personalised support, I offer one-on-one therapy sessions tailored to their specific needs.

 

These sessions focus on:  
 

• Addressing individual speech and language goals  

• Providing a safe space to practice new skills  

• Offering targeted feedback and strategies  

• Building confidence and self-esteem  

 

Whether it’s working on articulation, fluency or language development, one-to-one sessions ensure focused, individualised attention.

 

 

5. Stuttering/ stammering therapy

Stuttering can impact an individual’s confidence and communication. I provide specialised therapy to help individuals manage their stuttering and speak more fluently.

 

My approach includes: ​

 

• Teaching techniques to reduce stuttering (eg slow speech, breathing exercises)  

• Building confidence in speaking situations  

• Addressing the emotional impact of stuttering  

• Supporting families and educators with strategies to encourage fluency
