WHAT WE OFFER
Speech & Language Therapy
What is Speech & Language Therapy?
Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) is a dedicated service for adults navigating communication, voice, or swallowing challenges.
Whether you are recovering from an illness or managing a long-term condition, therapy provides a structured and compassionate path toward regaining your independence and confidence.
Abigail’s approach is holistic and evidence-based, focusing on what is most meaningful to each individual.
By combining clinical expertise with a supportive, personalised strategy, she helps you develop the functional tools required to communicate effectively and eat and drink safely, ultimately helping you reclaim your quality of life.
Abigail provides specialist support for a range of adult needs, including:
Swallowing Therapy (Dysphagia): Expert assessment and treatment for adults with swallowing difficulties to optimise safety and efficiency. Swallowing changes can often be managed or improved with the right guidance.
Communication Therapy: Tailored support for adults with aphasia (language difficulties), dysarthria, and apraxia (speech disorders), as well as cognitive-communication disorders.
Voice Therapy: Targeted therapy for adults with voice disorders (such as muscle tension dysphonia, reflux, nodules, or vocal cord palsy), provided following ENT assessment and diagnosis.
Training: Expert training and education tailored for carers and professionals working with adults who have communication or swallowing difficulties.
What Can it Help With?
What Should I Expect?
Sessions with Abigail are collaborative, patient-centred, and grounded in over a decade of clinical experience.
Recognising that no two journeys are the same, Abigail works closely with you—and your family or carers where appropriate—to set realistic, functional goals that make a genuine, positive difference in your daily life.
During your sessions, you can expect:
Comprehensive Assessment: A thorough evaluation to understand your specific communication or swallowing function.
Evidence-Based Rehabilitation: Targeted therapy programmes designed around your diagnosis and personal priorities.
Practical Strategies: Useful, actionable techniques to strengthen muscles, improve language processing, or optimise voice use.
Supportive Guidance: A warm, compassionate environment where you are empowered to navigate the social and emotional impact of your condition.
