We are delighted to welcome a new speech and language therapist to our fabulous team: Denise Bain who can cover Sandwell, Dudley, Walsall, Birmingham and Wolverhampton for both assessment and therapy. We have known Denise for a while now and have been impressed with her positive attitude, desire to learn more and her obvious skills:
I am Denise Bain, offering the Small Talk Speech and
Language Therapy service in Birmingham and its surrounding areas. I am excited
to join the Small Talk team and share in their commitment to ‘helping children reach their true potential’.
I believe this can be achieved through early intervention, creating
environments conducive to learning and individualising interventions to meet
specific needs.
I have a degree in BA (Hons) Speech and Language Therapy and
qualifications in Linguistics and Early Childhood Development. I am trained in
Palin Parent Child Interaction and Camperdown (approaches used with children
and young people who stammer).
I am fortunate
to have experience working with children, young people and their
parents/guardians a range of settings and capacities.
I work with children who find communication challenging or
difficult: struggling to understand or use language or speech effectively at
home, school or elsewhere. These
children include those with stammers, developmental language disorder, delayed
speech, learning disabilities e.g. Down’s Syndrome, and social communication
difficulties like those associated with ASD.
I can offer assessments and therapy interventions customised
to the needs of child and family. I offer training, support and collaboration
with families, teachers and other professionals so that we can work together
towards positive outcomes for children with SLCN.
I can also offer pre-school communication groups an early
intervention approach that can be utilised in early years settings.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me. I have flexible working
hours and I am available in and out of term time.
