SERVICES
1-1 Therapy
for children aged 2-11 year who stammer, and their families
1-1 Services: Assessment Sessions
an initial visit to your home or your child’s education/childcare setting. (home appointments are preferrable for initial assessment)
we’ll talk about your child’s stammer and overall development, a family history discussion, your hopes and expectations for therapy (for you and your child), any worries you may be experiencing, and how I can provide support.
an informal and fun play session, game, or craft session with your child.
an age appropriate and child-led discussion about your child’s own thoughts and feelings about their stammer and what they would like to achieve together. I may use stories, drawings, a short questionnaire with pictures, and toys to support our discussion.
In some cases, I may advise some further assessment of your child’s speech sounds, understanding, and use of spoken language. I can provide additional assessment of these if required.

Therapy for under 7s, may include:
