With a background in applied linguistics, Stephen understands the mechanisms underpinning both the nature and treatment of delayed speech, language and pragmatic skills.

Stephen's specialist interests include childhood speech and language disorders, the development of social/pragmatic skills and developmental stuttering. Stephen's perspective on stuttering therapy is informed by his experience both as a person who stutters and as a parent who has guided a child through stuttering therapy. Stephen has also been involved in researching the predictors of recovery from stuttering and has a strong focus on applying recent research findings in treatment.
