About me

I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist from UCL in 2008. I have 18 years experience working in highly specialist and team lead clinical roles in the NHS in London and Hertfordshire, in addition to offering private specialist assessment, therapy, training and professional supervision.

I provide support for adults with acquired neurological conditions, including but not limited to, stroke, brain injury, parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, functional neurological disorder, dementia. I provide a professional, evidence based service that is individually tailored to each client's needs. I have a wide range of experience providing assessment and therapy, training and supervision for all types of communication and swallowing difficulties. These include, aphasia (language), dysarthria (speech), apraxia of speech, cognitive communication disorder, dysphonia (voice), dysphagia (swallowing).

I also support pre-school aged children (2-5 years) with their speech, language and communication development.

I accept self-referrals and referrals from any health professional. Therapy sessions can be carried out at my clinic space in central Harpenden with free on-site parking or at your home within Harpenden or the surrounding area.
