Meet Tania

I have worked for over 22 years as a speech and language therapist and I really love what I do!

 

As a mother of four I know how hard parenting can be, especially when you are worried about your child's development. I have helped hundreds of children struggling with speech, language and communication, and it is a real privilege to work with them and see their progress. I get so much satisfaction from seeing the positive difference I can make to my clients and their families.  It's a really rewarding job.

 

I graduated in 2002 from De Montfort University in Leicester and have extensive experience working as a therapist with individual clients, schools and charities across Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and the Midlands.  I specialise in autism, special educational needs and learning disabilities, but I can help with all sorts of speech, language and communications needs, which are listed below.
