With nearly two decades of experience within the NHS and across health, education, and social care, I provide expert Speech and Language Therapy for individuals with neurodevelopmental and mental health difficulties. My work is defined by a commitment to helping people across the lifespan understand their unique communication profiles and thrive.

Expert Diagnostics & Training
I am a clinical lead in diagnostic services and a recognized authority in autism assessment. My specialized toolkit includes:

• ADOS 2 & ADI-R: Expert administration of gold-standard diagnostic tools.
• Clinical Leadership: Member of the Scottish Consortium for ADOS and a qualified ADOS Trainer.
• Talking Mats: Certified practitioner using visual frameworks to help individuals express their views and feelings.

Beyond the Diagnosis.

I believe a diagnosis is the beginning of a journey, not the end. I specialize in Post-Diagnostic Support, helping individuals and families "personalize" a diagnosis. We work together to understand what Autism or neurodivergence means for you, focusing on:

• Outcome-Focused Therapy: Improving communication and reducing the impact of daily challenges.
• Family-Centered Support: Ensuring parents and caregivers are supported and informed.
• Flexible Intervention: Adapting my clinical style to meet the specific sensory and emotional needs of the individual.
