Meet your therapist
Hello, I am Rachel, an Independent Speech and Language Therapist.
I’ve worked as a speech and language therapist for over 11 years now.
This has included employment across different settings both within the National Health Service in the UK and independently.
I continue to support children and young people’s speech, language and communication development ranging from early years to secondary school level.
At the heart of everything I do, I believe that the primary goal of speech and language therapy is to support the individual’s well-being, confidence and self-esteem to communicate with others.
To also support the individual’s parents and carers on their journey.
