In this book, Warda Farah brings a fresh perspective to the field of speech and language therapy, challenging traditional approaches and opening crucial conversations about race, culture, and neurodiversity in clinical practice to ensure better outcomes for all children and young people.

Drawing from her unique position as a Black neurodivergent practitioner, Farah weaves personal insights with professional expertise to illuminate the often-overlooked intersections of identity, communication, and care. She discusses how moving beyond conventional assessment methods to embrace testimonial approaches can transform our understanding of children's communication journeys. Through analysis of historical, societal, and political contexts, the author suggests that systemic biases influence therapeutic practices and outcomes, boldly addressing the culture of silence within the profession.

Essential reading for practising therapists, educators, and students alike, this book ignites a necessary dialogue about transformation in speech and language therapy. It serves as both a wake-up call and a roadmap for speech and language therapists committed to delivering culturally responsive care in today's diverse society.

Warda Farah is a multi-award-winning social entrepreneur, speech and language therapist, writer, and lecturer whose work bridges neurodiversity research and racial justice. She founded Language Waves to work in a culturally, linguistically, and neurodiversity affirming manner, and collaborates with teachers and schools to rethink received wisdom and developmental theories shaping education in the UK.
