For Speech and language Therapists
I offer courses in VERVE Child Interaction for those Speech and Language Therapists who believe that Parents insight and skills with their own children are a fundamental part to therapy, and that all adults have an impact on each child’s access to communication.
VERVE Child Interaction is for all children who are seeking support with their communication development. The use of video is a philosophy. It offers adults the opportunity to reflect on what supports each individual child best, based on the knowledge of the parent and family. It is a tool for parent and therapist to develop together.
The aim of each course is to support therapists in becoming ‘Interactionalists’.
