Worried about your child's development?
Every parent's journey is different. Whether your child has been slow to talk, received a diagnosis, or you've simply had a nagging feeling something isn't quite right — you don't have to navigate it alone.
I work closely with each family to understand the full picture, building plans that make a real difference — at home, in school, and in daily life.

About
A little about me
I'm Priya Silvarajan — a Clinical Manager, Speech and Language Therapist, and Advanced Sensory Integration Practitioner. I'm registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and a Certified Member of the Royal College of Speech & Language Therapists.
I trained at the University of Canterbury and have spent my career supporting children with a broad range of communication and sensory needs. As a qualified ADOS-2 assessor, I also carry out autism diagnostic assessments — helping families finally get the answers and support they deserve.
I believe every child has the potential to communicate and connect. My job is to find the right pathway for each individual — and to support the whole family along the way.
