Hiya private speech therapy suggestions

We recently had some private sessions for my son as the NHS wait list is so long. We also were invited to group sessions first but I didnt find it helped too much so we went private.
The assessment was £150 (i think) and the sessions were £75 each. He has had 8 sessions, one a week and its gone really well. We have seen a really big improvement so have agreed to take a break and probably go back in 3-6 months if needed. Although he is still on the NHS wait list so im waiting to see what that brings.
Happy to talk it though more if you want to message :) x

Hiya? My son also needs speech therapy, What are the private sessions like? Are they face to face or online? how long is each sessions and are they group sessions with multiple kids or just one on one? X x :)

That’s good to hear you had improvement!
My boy has got single words and i feel his understanding is not good. In nhs last week we had a parent coaching session i don’t think that was worth it and my concern is he will be starting school next year i really worry about his speech that’s reason looking for a private one .
May I know what are the private sessions like
I checked a few it is really expensive

The sessions we had were 1:1 in person. They were really good as they would also do a home visit or nursery visit if needed but we just went to them as my son really enjoyed it there.

Its basically learn through play so each time SLT would set up different toys and we would interact that way. She also filmed us and we watched it back and she gave hints and tips to do at home.

Im in Essex and its Clarity Speech and Language, if by chance you are nearby I would definitely recommend xx
