This consultation will pinpoint your child’s developmental progress in all the areas of language and communication, and give individual advice as to how a programme can best work for you and your child.

The emphasis of the therapy sessions is to guide parents in helping their child’s language and communication development. The language programme is discussed, demonstrated and shared. Others may require a few intensive sessions initially, followed by follow-up sessions at longer intervals.

This assessment will enable your child’s difficulties to be accurately detailed so that an individual therapy programme can be devised for him or her.

A comprehensive assessment, diagnostic formulation, recommendations and detailed assessment report can be provided depending on individual need. Fees are based on the length of assessment and report required.

Parents may require the therapist to attend a tribunal or court hearing as a medico-legal expert witness.

The first 15 minutes telephone consultation is free of charge. Subsequent telephone consultation, conferences, skype intervention sessions and email correspondence are available (e.g. to discuss strategies and support with parents and to provide ongoing support to older children and students).
