Approach
Marg’s approach is based on the underlying philosophy of “knowing the person” and that communication is essentially “making an emotional connection with others”. She achieves this by:
Determining the nature and extent of people’s cognitive-communication issues and assisting with an underlying diagnosis
Support people with managing their daily communication challenges
Educating & supporting the person, their circle of support and the wider community in effective communication with & without speech
