Gender

Female

I am a passionate Speech Pathologist who is committed to providing a high quality, holistic family-centred service. I believe that everyone can achieve great things and I seek to help others achieve their maximum potential. I use a combination of modern, research-based approaches when working with children and adolescence, and adapt my approach to suit each individual’s needs. I ensure my clients (and their parents) have a strong voice when it comes to therapy and establishing therapy goals, and I make sure ensure everyone's needs are heard and met. I understand and appreciate the difficulties faced by many parents and thus provide an empathetic and supportive approach to help empower my clients in every way possible.

I have enjoyed working across a number of different professional sectors, including; Private Practice, Government (Community and Disability Services), and Community Based Volunteer Services (Yellow House Children’s Services Kenya). I have experience in working with children with speech and language delays and disorders, disabilities, literacy difficulties, and stuttering. I have specialized skills and a keen interest in disabilities, particularly Autism Spectrum Disorders and Down Syndrome.
