Services

Emma offers assessment and therapy sessions in the child’s own home, to ensure that the child can be assessed, observed and treated in familiar and relaxed surroundings. Sessions may also take place at the child’s nursery / school if appropriate.

Speech and Language Assessment:

The assessment process aims to find out as much as possible about the way the child is communicating. It involves gathering case history information about the child’s development (a questionnaire is completed by the parents prior to the assessment session), discussing the parents concerns and assessing the child’s speech, language and communication skills using a combination of standardised assessments, play and observations. Assessment sessions usually last between 60-90 minutes. A comprehensive written report is provided detailing assessment results and advice.

Therapy sessions:

Individual therapy sessions are offered and usually last up to one hour, using fun and motivating activities and games to help the child progress. Home practice material is often provided between sessions so that parents and families have ideas and strategies to continue the development following the therapy session.

Attendance at Multi-professional Meetings:

Emma will attend and contribute to multi-professional meetings where requested.
