Emma works alongside clients and their support network in the assessment of communication skills, identification and trialling of strategies/tools/devices to enhance the client’s everyday communication. When communication devices have been issued, Emma will support the team with training and implementation. Along with the other TalkLink Speech-Language Therapists, Emma is also involved in running training courses and organising support group meetings for TalkLink clients.
Emma completed a postgraduate training course at the University of Sheffield and began work in England in 2004.

Emma has experience of working in paediatrics with children with speech and language delay and communication disorders including autism.
