Judy Sommer MCSP is an experienced therapist in assessing and developing individual programmes for children with specific learning difficulties (dyspraxia, clumsy child, developmental delay, lack of co-ordination, inattentive, slow to speak and read, hyperactive).

Judy uses Sensory Integration Therapy, deep pressure and brushing techniques, specialised movement programmes, exercises to improve gross and fine motor skills, and Therapeutic Listening using EASE and Samonas cds. Special emphasis is placed on giving parents, teachers and carers advice and support to help children realise their potential.

Similar help is available for young adults who may have organisational difficulties, poor listening skills, poor spacial awareness, inability to keep up with their peer group and low self-esteem.

Assessment is carried out in a clinical setting and cannot be done over the telephone or via email.

Judy has experience in lecturing to schools and is able to advise other therapists, teachers, parents and care workers whose client groups may benefit from Sensory Integration Therapy. She is also available for home visits by arrangement.
