I am a highly specialist speech and language therapist who specialises in working with neurological conditions such as MS, Parkinson’s, Stroke and Traumatic Brain Injury. I am passionate about supporting individuals and their families who have been affected by communication difficulties. My mission is to empower people to achieve their goals, gain more confidence and improve their quality of life.
After a previous career in television, I graduated with distinction from the University of Greenwich in 2013. Prior to setting up Oxford Adult Speech Therapy I worked at Northwick Park’s Regional Hyper Acute and Rehabilitation Unit, London (2013 – 2017), and the Oxfordshire Centre for Enablement (2017 - 2018), where I led the speech therapy service for the continuing disability management service (CDMS).
