Erin Collie,
Your Local, Independent Speech and Language Therapist, 07930 339 614
Initial Assessment
Initial assessment fees start at £100. They take place either at your home, Sage Therapy Centre or online and include the following
CASE HISTORY - This is a detailed discussion regarding your child's development. We discuss things such as medical history, developmental milestones and parental concerns.
INTERESTS - I like to start getting to know your child by hearing about their unique interests, what they enjoy and what makes them them!
OBSERVATION/ASSESSMENT - I will begin building a picture of your child's communication skills by using appropriate assessment. Depending on their age and skills I may use formal and/or informal assessments to look deeper into their communication skills. I also use video as a routine part of their assessment so I can see them communicating in a more natural environment. See below for more detailed assessment info.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Intervention
I enjoy creating individualised therapy that feels natural and fits with your lifestyle. I therefore only use approaches that I believe truly allow me to do this.
My most effective intervention is VERVE Interaction. It uses child led play to build language through natural interactions.
It is recommended that you do at least a 4 week 'block' followed by at least one check in session a month later.
You can sign up on a session by session basis or you can choose the package. See below for fees and details.
VERVE Intervention Package
£550
This package Includes:
Initial assessment
6 intervention sessions
Summary Report
This package is available for VERVE therapy and can act as a starter pack for ongoing intervention, although many find that this is enough to either impact change or give families the knowledge and confidence to continue progression without direct intervention.
