Sensory Speech Sessions

Communication Through Play, Movement and Meaningful Connection

Our sensory speech sessions provide a relaxed, child-led environment where communication can develop naturally through sensory experiences, movement and meaningful play. They are designed for children aged three and over who may find traditional table-based therapy overwhelming or unengaging.

Rather than placing demands on the child, sessions follow their interests, motivations and preferred ways of interacting, creating genuine opportunities to develop joint attention and functional language in a safe and enjoyable way.

Who These Sessions Support

  • Autistic children
  • Children with delayed speech and language development
  • Non-speaking children
  • Minimally speaking children

A Different Approach to Communication

There is no expectation for children to remain seated at a table throughout the session. Speech and language support is combined with a sensory-rich environment inspired by occupational therapy principles.

  • Child-led
  • Neuroaffirming
  • Play-based
  • Individualised around the child’s interests
  • Tailored to the child’s sensory profile
  • Focused on genuine communication rather than compliance
