Welcome to Mel Taylor SLT Services
Whether you're looking for ongoing Speech and Language Therapy or a one-off assessment with tailored advice, we're here to support you every step of the way. Our goal is to help you reach your full potential in communication and swallowing.

About Me…

I’m a qualified Speech and Language Therapist with over 20 years of experience. Since qualifying in 2001, I’ve worked across many areas of the profession, and for the past two decades, I’ve specialised in supporting adults with acquired neurological conditions here in the North West.

My background gives me a strong understanding of both common and more complex communication and swallowing difficulties. I take a holistic, person-centred approach to therapy—offering bespoke treatment plans tailored to your individual needs, lifestyle, and goals.

All my work is grounded in the latest evidence-based practice to ensure the best possible outcomes. I take pride in providing thorough assessments to fully understand the cause of your concerns and, most importantly, how they affect your everyday life, roles, and relationships.

How I Work….

I offer home visits across the North West, including:

  • Cheshire

  • Merseyside

  • Lancashire

  • North Wales

If you're based outside these areas, online therapy sessions are also available—just get in touch to discuss what might work best for you.
