Online Speech and Language Therapy 

In addition to in-person services, Natalie offers high-quality online support via Zoom. Assessments, therapy sessions, meetings, and training can all be delivered effectively online, ensuring the same level of care and expertise. 
 
For very young children or those who find it challenging to engage online, assessments and therapy activities are conducted through video clips of the child interacting and playing. Sessions are then held with parents and education staff - without the child needing to be present. 
 
To ensure online therapy is the right fit for the child, family, and educational setting, Natalie offers a free, no-obligation initial consultation and technology trial. 
"Natalie has been a key person in my son’s dysfluency (stammering) journey, even though she has never met him! When I initially spoke with Natalie, it was her holistic approach which fitted with exactly what I wanted. My son had no idea of his speech dysfluency and that was the way I wanted it to stay. Natalie and I worked together using videos of myself and my son playing. Using those and the information I provided, she helped me to understand his triggers and dysregulation. This has given me the ability to understand, help and develop strategies, which in turn has led to huge progress in his speech. Thank you Natalie for all your help."
