Bio
I have been a registered speech and language therapist since 1994, working 18 years in the National Health Service in Scotland before moving here to beautiful Vancouver island in 2012. I bring a wealth of experience working with children of all ages in various settings (schools, nurseries, daycare). I have experience in a wide variety of therapies, helping children develop their communication skills to enable them to be the best that they can be! I have worked in the school district here in Canada as well as in a private setting with children with additional support needs (autism and developmental conditions). I enjoy making therapy a family centred process and love the progress I have seen in children during my career.
