Testimonials

"Áine has been working with my son, Joe (ASD) age 4, for over a year now. In that time his speech and communication skills have improved noticeably. Áine has equipped me and my husband with the skills we need to support Joes progress in our everyday lives and we’ve seen how important and effective this approach is. It is clear that Áine is passionate about what she does and always makes sure the sessions are fun for Joe. She has made the whole SLT experience a very positive one for my son and for us as parents.

"We started with Áine in 2021 when our son had just turned 3. At that stage he had no words at all really. Apart from Daddy! We've been going to Áine now on and off for the past year and my little boy now speaks in 3-4 word sentences and his confidence around talking has grown so much over the past year. Áine really makes her therapy feel like play and we as parents have learnt so much since we've been visiting her. She has empowered us to use her techniques at home between sessions. Most importantly, my little boy absolutely loves to go to Áine and enjoys every minute of his time with her :) I would recommend Áine to anyone and she has made a really positive impact on our son's development.
