• Paediatric Speech and Language Therapist

The Watford Speech and Language Therapy Practice

I am Katy Bridgewood, an Independent Speech and Language Therapist working within Hertfordshire and the surrounding areas.

I have many years experience working with children with a wide range of communication difficulties, and have a specialism in early speech and language development; and working with pre-school/school age children with special needs/Autism. I have worked within families homes, community clinics, pre-schools, mainstream schools, and primary and secondary special schools.

I offer advice and support to families to help to develop their child's speech, language and communication skills. Surprisingly, as a Speech Therapist, I also work with children with eating and drinking difficulties! I am passionate about helping children reach their full potential, wherever that may be.

I offer evidence based therapy and approaches, including Parent Child Interaction therapy, Lidcombe stammering therapy and Makaton signing. I make therapy fun an engaging, but informative for Parents and Carers. I can work directly with children, their Parents and school staff; or offer training packages, which can be delivered in a variety of settings, such as schools, nurseries or children's centres.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, or if you are looking for a Speech and Language Therapist for your child.
