Communication is a basic human right
Shadia Hancock, Certified Practising Speech Pathologist (CPSP).
​
We all deserve access to means of effectively expressing our ideas, to understand others, and to form authentic connections. I recognise that Autistic children become Autistic teenagers and adults. This comes with lots of changes and transitions, including daily interactions, study, relationships, and employment.
​
I am passionate about supporting Autistic adolescents, adults, and their allies to identify and implement personalised communication strategies, to self-advocate for inclusion and understanding, and to feel empowered and autonomous when interacting with others.
How we can help

Your communication strengths, areas of need, potentially helpful strategies, and goals will be explored with you involved at every stage. Neurodivergence is viewed by us as a difference, rather than being either a disorder or a superpower.
Practical resources and recommendations
Actions and approaches that you can easily use in your daily life, beyond face-to-face therapy sessions.
Individualised support
Therapy sessions, strategies, and resources will be guided what how you like to work best to help you achieve your goals.
