Overview

Communication and swallowing difficulties can arise at any stage of adult life, whether after a stroke, a neurological condition, injury or illness, or as a long-standing challenge. Therapy is practical and dignified, focused on the goals that matter most to you and your family.

I assess carefully, explain clearly, and build a rehabilitation plan around your daily life - so you can take part in the conversations, meals and moments that matter.

Adults and older adults - and their families - seeking rehabilitation for speech, language, voice or swallowing difficulties, including after a stroke or neurological diagnosis.
