Talk and Thrive SLT

Perk of being a private paediatric SLT: my 1-year-old tests all the therapy toys first 👶🧸

A lovely testimonial we have just received from a client! 🌿 Thank you! 💚

Hello and welcome 👋

I’m Beckie, a Speech & Language Therapist (SLT) behind Talk and Thrive SLT, a private Speech & Language Therapy service supporting children, young people, and adults.

I provide communication assessments and therapy for individuals with communication needs related to:
💚 Mental health
💙 Autism
💜 Learning disabilities

📍 Sessions are available via:
🏢 Clinic appointments in Nottingham (Beeston & Whitemoore), and Derby (City Centre)
🏡 Home visits
💻 Online sessions

My work focuses on functional communication, supporting people to better understand and express themselves in everyday life. Where appropriate, I can also provide clear written reports following assessment.

This page will be used to share information about my services, communication support, and relevant updates.

Thank you for being here 💚

Think SLTs just help with talking? Think again! Speech & language therapy is about so much more — from understanding info to expressing needs and emotions.

Not just for speech. Not just for kids. SLT can support you too. Here’s what I do!

Hey everyone! 👋

Some of you might remember that I originally set up this page when I was offering singing and piano lessons 🎶 Back then, I loved helping people find their voice — quite literally!

One day during a lesson, a student asked me if I could offer speech therapy too 🗣️ At the time, I wasn’t qualified — you need a degree and registration to be a Speech and Language Therapist — but it really got me thinking.

After a lot of thought (and a few nerves!), I applied to university to retrain, and now I’m proud to be working as a qualified Speech and Language Therapist 🎓💬

It might sound like a big change, but honestly, music and speech therapy have a lot in common: they’re both about building confidence, self-expression, and helping people be heard ❤️🎵

Thanks for following along with me on this journey — whether you’ve been here from my music days or you’re just joining now! I’m so excited for what’s to come ✨

🌟 Hello and welcome (back) to my page! 🌟

Some of you may know me as a music teacher offering singing and piano lessons 🎶 — but I wanted to reintroduce myself, as my page has recently had a little makeover!

I’m Beckie, a HCPC-registered Speech and Language Therapist, now expanding into private practice after working in NHS mental health hospitals. I support young people (12+) and adults with their communication, particularly those with mental health needs, neurodiversity (such as autism and ADHD), and learning disabilities.

✨ I now offer:

- 1:1 speech and language therapy sessions (home visits, community-based, or online)

- A free 20-minute consultation to explore how I can support you

- Services across Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield, Loughborough — and online, wherever you are!

🎵 And yes — I’m still offering singing and piano lessons too!

A little about me… I recently had a baby boy 👶💙, and when I’m not doing all things baby or work-related, I love reading, catching up with friends and family, and (constantly) thinking about what colour to dye my hair next! 💇‍♀️✨

Thanks for being here — whether you’ve followed me for music, therapy, or both. Feel free to message me or comment below if you'd like to know more 🖤💬

Hello everyone, long time no see! 👋🏻

I hope you are all doing well ☺️ I’m now working full time as a Speech and Language Therapist but I just can’t keep away from the world of teaching music! 🤣

I just wanted to make a post as I am able to open 2 half hour lesson slots on a Saturday morning if anyone would be interested, past or new students 🎶

I can offer lessons in:
🎙 Singing (beginner to advanced) 🎙
🎹 Piano (beginner) 🎹
🎼 Music theory (grades 1-5) 🎼

However the lessons would be online only as I no longer have a studio space📱💻

Please drop me a message if you would like more information 🫶🏻

I’m currently sorting out my studio and I have some things to give away if anyone is interested! Mainly some stationery bits but I’m sure I will be finding more things shortly! (Still got the loft yet 😬)
