MY BACKGROUND

When I was a teenager, my father had a serious head injury and I supported him through his rehabilitation. During this time, I became interested in how brain injury affects behaviour and communication and I decided to set out on a career as a Speech and Language Therapist.

I now have almost 25 years' experience as a Speech and Language Therapist working predominantly with adults with acquired neurological communication, cognitive and/or swallowing difficulties. I have worked in a variety of settings including community, specialist neurological centres and acute hospital settings.
