2024 update: I am afraid I am no longer taking new clients. Please try www.helpwithtalking.com to find a therapist.
From Colleen, Headteacher in Bucks
Cheryl has been amazing! She is incredibly accommodating and approachable. Cheryl works with many children at our school, giving each child bespoke tutoring and liaising closely with staff to ensure maximum progress for each pupil. I could not recommend her more highly!
From Finley's mum
I can’t recommend Cheryl highly enough. She has shown professionalism, kindness, patience and sensitivity in her interactions with our son. He has grown in confidence within himself and his social interactions with her support over the past year.
From Michelle, SENCo in a Bucks school
"Cheryl has been working with a child at my school over the last year. The child has made excellent progress with her speech. Cheryl has been lovely to work with and she has been very flexible and accommodating. She has also supported and trained a teaching assistant to continue to support the child in school. Cheryl will continue to work with children in the school in the coming year."
From David's mum
"It's been a very good experience for us working with Cheryl. She is absolutely great. We just had only few sessions but I think that was a good start for my son. He liked her a lot, always waiting for her in front of the door very happy. Even now still asking about her. Thank you Cheryl!! You are so good with kids"
From Jasper’s mum
“Cheryl has been a significant source of support in our household. My son had speech concerns since he was young and we have struggled to find the right support for him. He was worried and affected by his speech clarity. Cheryl has made a huge difference to his life. Her knowledge is vast and this is really evident during therapy. As a result of therapy with Cheryl, my son’s speech is clearer, he is more confident and he is happier. Cheryl uses fun games that interact in a way that speaks to him, and most importantly, is calm and patient with him when he is finding it hard to concentrate. Cheryl not only supports my son, but supports me as his mother. I’m able to help my son make progress whilst knowing I’m not dealing with this on my own. Cheryl has identified the main reasons behind his speech concerns and has also identified specialist teams that may be able to help with underlying causes. She goes above and beyond and I’m so glad we found her.”
From Georgia's mum
"Cheryl has been working with our autistic daughter for several months now and already we can hear the difference in her spoken language. SLT sessions for our daughter within a school environment were overwhelming for her. Having the sessions at home means we have a much greater say in the content and for the first time we can sit in on the sessions so we all learn together. Cheryl is calm, professional and most importantly for us, flexible. We feel listened to as parents. Can't recommend enough!"
From Ian's mum
"Cheryl has been working regularly with our three year old son to help him overcome his delayed speech. She provides lots of imaginative ways to help Ian improve and he has made great progress. Cheryl follows up each session with email instructions and tips, which I have found to be extremely helpful. She has also visited Ian at his preschool, to offer insight and activities to support his learning and development.
"Every time Cheryl arrives at the door, Ian is excited to see her. In the past he has not been receptive to the interventions of adults, but Cheryl has built a happy relationship with Ian and he is now keen to participate in games which help his speech development."
From Hamish's dad
"We started working with Cheryl 6 months ago, as we didn't feel we were getting enough support through our local services. Our son Hamish is 3 and has global developmental delay, but we were particularly concerned about his language and communication skills.
"We see Cheryl once a week, and Hamish loves the sessions, rushing to the door to give Cheryl a big hug when she arrives. The sessions not only directly help Hamish develop but also provide us as parents with the confidence, skills and framework to get the most out of our day to day interactions with Hamish.
"Cheryl has collaborated with the other professionals that Hamish works with and is a trusted source of advice in terms of other areas of Hamish's development and education."
From Max's mum
"Cheryl helped our son with his speech over a six month period. During this time he made great progress and grew in confidence and ability. Cheryl's gentle and encouraging approach was perfect and she gave us lots of advice and strategies for helping Max to improve his speech. I would thoroughly recommend her!"
