TESTIMONIALS

“Robena is one of the most confident, caring and knowledgeable speech and language therapists I have worked with.”

Tracie Huckerby
Clinical Services Manager, Priory, Burton Park

“Robena and Krisztina have been amazing with our son ensuring they really
understand his needs to deliver a targeted and bespoke programme for him.  
We have seen so much positive progress over the last 12 months and we have been
given some amazing strategies and tools tailored specifically to his strengths and
abilities.”

“Robena is a friendly, enthusiastic lady who gives you confidence to achieve your speech and language goals.”

“I have known Robena for a long time. We met when I had a stroke and needed a speech therapist. The help I received I still use today (some 8 years later) as it is still relevant: the breathing techniques and sound exercises to name two examples. Very quickly, Robena became a good friend and a bright smiling face during what were very dark days. She is helpful and reliable, a very honest person who I am proud to call a friend.”

“Kayleigh is a breath of fresh air in terms of dynamic, out of the box thinking and her client focussed, risk assessing approach echoes that of Robena’s in enough ways that you can tell she has worked closely beside her.

However, Kayleigh remains guided by her own intuitive understanding of her client and their goals, incorporating her skill and knowledge along the way to provide holistic, client centred goals that are relevant and evidenced based along with a dynamic and robust therapy plan to help the client achieve them.

I absolutely love working alongside Kayleigh and have no hesitation in recommending her to work with TBI / ABI clients with complex Speech and Language needs.”

“My daughter absolutely loves her sessions with Krisztina. She finds them fun and very
engaging. Krisztina and Robena have a great understanding of what works well for my daughter and this has definitely made a great impact on the development of her speech. 
As a parent I couldn’t be happier with the input from Krisztina and Robena and the
improvements made in such a short space of time.”

Parent of I

We were told that our son would not be able to eat and drink after suffering a brain injury. He had swallowing x-rays which showed high risks and he was nil by mouth for a long time. Robena started working with our son and engaged with him from the outset with her infectious personality, enthusiasm, humour and determination to make his life better. Within a few months of working with him he started to eat and drink. He now eats three meals per day and rarely has nutrition through his PEG. This would not have been possible without Robena. 

Parent of M

“After suffering a head injury during a hockey match, I needed acute speech therapy to help me get back on track.

Robena was very professional throughout the sessions giving help, support and encouragement.

Would highly recommend Robena.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working directly with Nibha for over four years in the area of acute medicine inpatients. She has been hard working and a vital part of the team. Nibha has always maintained a patient-centered approach and always brings a smile to those who she works with, both patients and co-workers.”

“Robena was able to establish a very positive and effective relationship with our client, adopting a client centred, problem solving approach. Her work was instrumental in paving the way forward for our client’s engagement with rehabilitation.  

I would have no hesitation in recommending Robena.”

Caroline Leaney
Brain Injury Case Manager, Independent Case Management Ltd

“Robena has worked with my son for about 4 years. In that time he has progressed from simple word recognition to fully using his adaptive speech aid, including self editing of his grid sets. She has also supported him to use his speech aid in different social situations ie.restaurants and pubs. He now even makes his own table bookings when going out.

Robena has an amazing personality.

We hold a deep affection for Robena and her distinctive ways, and we are grateful for her exceptional support and presence in our lives. She is truly amazing.”

Parent of S

Robena understands the importance of client-centred goal setting and integrating her therapy into activities that mean something to the client. She has a strong focus on shared outcomes and empowering clients to succeed.

Emma Le Grand
Case Manager, A J Case Management Ltd

We have seen fantastic progress since Robena’s involvement, and client feedback reflects what a pleasure Robena is to work with. I would highly recommend her to future clients and colleagues.
