I have been working as a Paediatric Speech and Language Therapist for the past 20 years with children and young people from 18 months to 18 years with ASD, intellectual disability, speech and language delay and specific language impairment in a variety of settings including home, pre-school, school and community care clinics.
Currently I provide assessment and intervention services in the clinic and school settings.
Apart from clinical work, I have facilitated parent training programmes and training to support staff in preschool and primary school settings as well as being a tutor for the Hanen Programmes It Takes Two To Talk, Learning Language and Loving It and the More Than Words programme. I have attended many training courses in the areas of receptive and expressive language, speech sound difficulties and am trained in the administration of the ADOS-G Assessment  of Autism, SCERTS, The Picture Communication  Exchange Programme (PECS) , The Zones of Regulation &  Talkabout Social Communication Programme (Alex Kelly).
