What does a speech and language therapist do?

As a Speech and Language Therapist based in Keynsham, I support children to develop their communication skills. This can include working on speech sounds, understanding and using language, social communication, and fluency. My therapy is always tailored to the individual child and designed to fit naturally into family life.

How do I know if my child needs speech therapy?

You might consider speech and language therapy if your child is difficult to understand, is not meeting expected language milestones, struggles to follow instructions, or finds social communication challenging. If you are unsure, I can offer an initial consultation to help you decide whether support would be helpful.

What ages do you support?

I specialise in supporting children aged 0–11 years. My approach is adapted to each stage of development, from early years communication through to primary school.

Where are sessions held?

My clinic appointments are based in Keynsham. I can also offer home and school visits across Somerset and the Bristol area when appropriate.

What speech and language needs do you work with?

I support children with a range of Speech, Language and Communication Needs (SLCN), including speech sound difficulties, Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), Autism, Down Syndrome and stammering. Every therapy plan is personalised so that it feels manageable and meaningful for each family.

Hi, I’m Kate - and I believe that everyone has something to say

What makes We Can CommuniKate Speech and Language Therapy special is that everything I do is delivered with heart.

I don’t just provide therapy - I support children to develop their communication skills while building confidence, connection, and joy.

Every form of communication matters.

Whether it’s supporting a child with speech and language therapy, or empowering educators through bespoke training and collaboration, my goal is the same: to create communication-rich environments where every voice is valued.

From nurseries to schools, I work alongside staff to make communication support practical, inclusive, and part of everyday life — because when we all understand how to communicate, everyone can thrive.

Based in Keynsham I support children in my clinic but am able to provide ad hoc home/school visits when appropriate.
