dyspraxia assessments and treatment

I started this practice back in 2008, with the intention to solely provide assessments and treatment for children with Dyspraxia / Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). Over the years I have successfully treated many of these children and I am proud to constantly improve the level of care and expertise I am able to provide as I develop my knowledge and skills.

Dyspraxia Assessment

The Dyspraxia Assessment is suitable for children aged 5 years to 15 years and can assist in providing a diagnosis of Dyspraxia / Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). The Dyspraxia Assessment is very comprehensive and includes a full report.

Dyspraxia Treatment

Dyspraxia Treatment sessions take place online and are available to all children worldwide, regardless of whether they had their Dyspraxia Assessment with me. Specific exercises and activities are used to improve the underlying causes of a child’s challenges.

Handwriting Therapy

Handwriting requires the integration of many component skills. I determine the nature of each individual child’s difficulties and specific underlying reasons for those difficulties. I then develop a targeted treatment programme to address these.

Dyspraxia Assessment

Since developing an interest in this niche, I have taken many courses focusing on the assessment and treatment of these children and have enjoyed keeping up to date with current research in this field.

I regularly attend DCD-UK, the biennial academic and practitioner conference on Developmental Coordination Disorder. This sees all the UK leaders in this field gather together for a highly informative conference which helps me to consolidate and develop my knowledge and to exchange best practice with other therapists, doctors, teachers and academics.

During my career I have also gained 11 years’ experience working as a specialist physiotherapist for the Royal Air Force and as team physiotherapist for Icarus FC, the RAF Officers’ football club.

I have also qualified as a Yoga Teacher and Ballroom & Latin American Dance Teacher and I practice a number of complementary therapies. You can find out more at Fiona Dawn.
