Therapy & Training

Therapy

Following initial assessment Chester Speech Therapy will provide an honest opinion as to whether your child will benefit from therapy sessions and an action plan will be agreed.

Therapy sessions are play based and are on weekly or fortnightly basis depending on your child’s needs.  Towards the end of each session time is spent with parents / teaching staff sharing ideas and activities for practice between sessions.  

Sessions for school age children take place at school during the school day.

Sessions for younger children can take place at nursery or at the child’s home.

Training

We have a variety of training packages to offer to teaching staff, Early Years Practitioners and parents.

Our 8 year old daughter had been having difficulties with her speech for several years and although not severe it was starting to affect her confidence and impact her at school. Sarah was extremely approachable and quickly built up a good relationship with our daughter, making the weekly speech therapy sessions fun and engaging so that she always looked forward to them. I was amazed at how quickly we started to notice a difference in our daughter’s speech and I am happy to say that even though it has been a month since her final session she is still maintaining the correct sounds and shows no signs of reverting back to her old habits.
