The Speech Practice

• What they offer / teach

  The Speech Therapy Practice provides face-to-face speech and language therapy for adults and children across Birmingham and the West Midlands, including child therapy, adult therapy for communication and swallowing difficulties (dysphagia), and medico-legal reports for adults. It also offers a new Autism Assessment Service run in partnership with a Clinical Psychologist, three in-school therapeutic support packages that can be purchased privately or through an Education, Health and Care Plan, and post-graduate training for speech and language therapists via Quest Training.

• Ages served

  The practice works with both adults and children; the Autism Assessment Service is stated to be for children over 5. No overall minimum or maximum age is given.

• Approach

  The service is led by Jo Frost, a Speech and Language Therapist with over 30 years' experience, working with a small team of highly skilled therapists described as warm, compassionate, enthusiastic and passionate, with specialist experience and additional training. They offer face-to-face therapy at their King's Heath clinic, describe their adult work as creative, innovative and evidence-based, and say therapy requires commitment and may not be a quick fix, aiming to help for as little or as much time as is necessary.

• Admissions

  Clients contact the practice by phone or email to register for sessions, and they may be a good fit for people seeking face-to-face therapy who can attend the King's Heath clinic in Birmingham. The practice only offers therapy within its specialist areas and says it will advise people before they register if it cannot provide a specialist in their area of need, and will try to direct them to a more suitable therapist.

• Cost

  The page states that the in-school therapeutic support packages can be purchased privately or funded through a child's Education, Health and Care Plan, but no fees or prices are given.
