We are neurodiversity affirming
In our sessions we celebrate that all brains and ways of developing, processing and engaging with the world are different and ok. We know that it is not possible to cure or fix brain differences and why would we want to? Diversity brings joy and new ways of thinking about things. Many of our practioners are nuerodiverg
Why speech and language therapy outdoors?
We all do our best when we are relaxed, regulated, interested and motivated. Developing skills happens when we are engaged in doing something interesting and meaningful! Many people feel happier, calmer and ready to engage when they are outside and have the space and time to come to any learning on their own terms. Forest school and the outdoors provides endless opportunities for this. We can also use forest school and child led speech and language therapy ideas in other ways and even bring them indoors with us!
What does it look like?
Sessions are client led. They follow the clients interests, sensory needs and preferences and build goals into these. The goal is always to empower the client and those around them to use any strategies in real life. We can take sessions anywhere…even indoors.
