"Our son Harvey had been diagnosed with a speech disorder when he was nearly 4 years old, we searched for a Speech Therapist and came across Chris, since starting therapy with Chris in June 2017 Harvey has come on leaps and bounds his vocabulary is so much clearer and he no longer gets as frustrated when trying to get his point across and is so much more confident.Chris’s sessions are structured around Harvey’s abilities but Harvey feels like they’re constantly playing although he’s learning, he loves to see Chris and can’t wait for his next session.Nothing’s to much for Chris he always gives us any materials to work with and he’s also a lovely person who makes you feel at ease.We highly rate Chris and don’t feel Harvey would be so far forward without Chris’s help, we can’t thank and recommend him enough". Mother of 4 year old with Speech disorder
" In June 2017 our son Jacob (then 3 years old) was diagnosed with a Phonological Speech Disorder. We researched local Speech Therapists in our area and we were so happy to find you. Jacob wouldn’t be where he is today if it wasn’t for you Chris. From day one you’ve made us all feel comfortable, happy and relaxed. Jacob absolutely adores you. You’ve always been there for us, listened to us and truly gone above and beyond. You’ve created fun and varied sessions which have been tailored to suit Jacob’s needs. Your passion clearly shines through in each and every session. Jacob used to have difficulty saying his d, f and s sounds and now he doesn’t. Thank you so much for all of your help and support that you’ve given us and continue to give us all. I no longer feel like I’m a parrot on his shoulder repeating what I think he may have said and that’s down to you. He’s made amazing progress and his confidence has flourished. Jacob’s gone from being misunderstood to being understood. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. The transformation in Jacob’s speech has been nothing short of amazing." Mother of 5 year old with a Speech disorder
"Our daughter was really struggling speaking and was only using around 10 words. Chris instantly made us feel at ease and built up an amazing rapport with our little girl. The advice and strategies given were so simple to follow but made a huge difference. After three sessions Louise was using lots of words and more importantly we were using the strategies and skills Chris showed us to support her development". Father of 3 year old with limited language
School's Comments
"Chris supported children with a range of communication difficulties in our school. He provided an excellent standard of interventions to all pupils he worked with. Chris also supported my staff members and up-skilled them to help develop our school into a place where communication with others was fun and achievable rather than frustrating and problematic". Primary School in Ipswich
