ANNA BIAVATI
Speech and language therapist for children
Welcome to Wordsteps, my name is Anna Biavati and I am a private Specialist Speech and Language Therapist based in Edinburgh.
I am specialized in SELECTIVE MUTISM and I love to share my knowledge with parents that need help. You can find more info about what I can offer here FOR PARENTS to help their child to overcome Selective Mutism, ONLINE.
In Edinburgh, I have a lovely therapy room where you can come and feel relaxed with your child, and my aim is to play and make your child feel at home because this will help your child to find it easier to transfer skills they were learning in therapy.
I work across the central belt of Scotland mainly as this is an area that I manage to cover, so anything between Edinburgh and Glasgow.
I aim to empower not only the children that I support but also their parents and involved professionals.

Mentoring and supervision for therapists
Contact me for my step by step approach for supporting parents, carers and professionals.
Supporting children with selective mutism (SM) is complex.
Speech therapists need special skills and careful ways to help. I think supervision is really important for therapists working with kids with SM. It helps them learn better ways to help and grow professionally.
During the supervision calls, I want to offer a place for therapists to address their own countertransference and emotional reactions when working with clients with SM.
