She has completed training in PECS, eating and feeding difficulties in children, selective mutism and emotional and behavioural difficulties.

Standard assessments used include the CELF 3 - uk (receptive and expressive language skills), BPVS (vocabulary understanding), pragmatics profile, RAPT (expressive language), RWF (word finding) and STAP (speech).
