Oxfordshire based Speech and Language Therapy
If you or an adult family member have been affected by a communication difficulty such as aphasia, apraxia of speech or dysarthria due to an acquired brain injury or neurological condition Speech and Language Therapy can help.
By using a range of techniques, you can maximise your potential and minimise frustration, limiting the difficulties you may be experiencing with communication.
My approach is person centred and tailored according to your needs. I also specialise in Solution Focused Practice – an empowering, encouraging and effective talking therapy – which is used both as a stand alone approach as well as alongside speech and language therapy techniques.
As a highly specialist Speech and Language Therapist, with 18 years of extensive experience working with adults in NHS and independent settings, I can help you achieve your aims. I now work solely in private practice.
Speech and Language Therapy
Communication is at the heart of each human interaction and can be affected by conditions such as stroke, brain injury or a progressive neurological condition. Speech and Language Therapy helps improve communication and reduces the negative impact of a communication difficulty.
Solution Focused Practice
Solution Focused Practice or Solution Focused Brief Therapy is an empowering, empathetic and effective talking therapy. The approach encourages people to notice what is working rather than focusing on the problem, difficulties or decision they face.
I cannot recommend her highly enough.
“I was unlucky enough to have a major stroke during an operation, but then lucky enough to have Susannah as my speech therapist. She is a warm and encouraging person but utterly professional, quite rightly demanding (because that’s how progress is made) and endlessly thoughtful and inventive. And when she thought she had done all that could be done, it was she who gently brought our sessions to an end.”

Susannah’s experience came with warmth and sensitivity.
“She helped my father immensely with his speech difficulties following a major stroke. You could see a difference from the very first visit, and it made a great improvement to his outlook on life. I would highly recommend Susannah to any adult who finds themselves in a similar situation.”

Susannah is quite simply the best speech therapist we have found.
“Following my mother’s stroke Susannah effortlessly engaged with her and, in a highly professional, structured, stimulating, but yet also extremely personal way, brought my mother’s voice back to us.”
Mr. R.
I would certainly recommend Susannah as a speech therapist.
Susannah Stobart came to us after my husband had a stroke. He got on with her immediately as she was very positive and able to help him with his comprehension of what had happened to him and even made him laugh.”
