SaLTs

Services for speech and language therapists and education professionals

Professional supervision

I offer supervision for speech and language therapists, in line with the RCSLT guidance.

I provide opportunities for self-reflection on your clinical practice in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.

I will facilitate your problem-solving and ask questions to enable you to find alternative solutions to clinical and practice-related issues. I offer another perspective. I may challenge your thinking at times and signpost you to alternative support. Occasionally, I may provide ideas and resources, however, supervision is more about helping you to find answers through developing your self-reflection.

I am trained with In Tandem (level 3) to offer both individual and group professional supervision and have over 25 years’ experience of offering these models within the NHS and independent practice. I also receive my own supervision for clinical practice and supervision practice to ensure that I can offer a high-quality service.

Please get in touch if you would like to find out more about professional supervision – we can arrange an initial 30 minute remote session (free of charge) to work out whether we are a good fit.

Specialist mentoring

I provide advice and mentoring for SaLTs and education professionals.

If you manage people who work with children who have speech, language and communication difficulties, and would like some support with a project or navigating change, then a period of mentoring might be beneficial.

Mentoring contracts usually run for a set number of sessions or over an agreed time period until a piece of work is complete.

• Expanding or adding a new offer to your provision for children with SLC difficulties such as remote support or a student placement
• Innovative, collaborative project ideas – thinking ‘outside of the box’
• Measuring, improving or demonstrating the impact of your support
• Commissioning a SaLT service for your educational setting
• Employing or managing a SaLT in your school – tips for SENCOs and senior leadership teams
• Developing a realistic, achievable project plan
• Considering changes as you approach retirement from a SaLT career
