Nishika Chadha

Before completing a Masters in Speech and Language Therapy, Nishika spent eight years working across schools, supporting children with a range of social, communication and emotional needs. This experience provided her with a strong understanding of how children learn, communicate and engage within everyday classroom environments.

Alongside her professional experience, Nishika completed a number of Masters degrees in Social and Cultural Psychology, Child and Adolescent Psychoanalysis, and Psychology. This training deepened her understanding of unconscious processes and how these can influence communication, behaviour and engagement across different environments, supporting a more holistic understanding of the child and their individual experiences.

Nishika brings a creative and flexible approach to therapy and strives to develop engaging, child-led activities tailored to each child’s interests. She aims to make sessions enjoyable, motivating and meaningful, helping to build confidence and encourage active participation in therapy.

Nishika has a particular interest in supporting autistic children and is passionate about multiculturalism and the importance of creating culturally inclusive environments. She is committed to ensuring that every child feels understood, valued and supported throughout their therapeutic journey.

Nishika also has experience supporting adults with post-stroke aphasia.
