Emma McElroy

BSc (Hons), HCPC, RCSLT 
Co-Founder & Specialist Speech and Language Therapist

My name is Emma and I am a Highly Specialist Speech and Language Therapist who brings fun and creativity to every therapy session. I have over 9 years of experience working across the North West, and am dedicated to helping individuals of all ages achieve their aspirations and communicate more confidently.

My therapeutic philosophy is all about empathy, embracing all forms of communication, and making therapy a joyful experience for everyone involved. Family and caregiver involvement are key components of my holistic approach as communication is always a two way street!

I am passionate about working with schools to create supportive communication environments for all students and to ensure that education staff feel supported and empowered. Speech and language support shouldn’t feel like a burden for already busy schools so it is essential to weave into it the everyday life of school with projects that make an impact.

I have a range of specialist interests including (but not limited to):

  • Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)

  • Developmental Language Disorder (DLD)

  • Speech sound delays and disorders

  • Selective / Situational Mutism (SM)

  • Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs

  • Attachment and trauma

  • Stammering

In addition to the wide range of services above, I also offer specialised diagnostic assessments and reports for adults with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Understanding that DLD can persist into adulthood and significantly impact communication and performance in the workplace, I provide comprehensive evaluations to diagnose and develop tailored recommendations and training for employers.

Outside of my professional life, I am an avid reader, a passionate advocate for mental health awareness, and enjoy spending time with my family in Ireland and travelling to new places with friends.

If you or a loved one are facing speech and language challenges, I am here to help. Reach out today to begin a journey towards more confident communication, and have some fun along the way!
