Ms Dorica Chore

Allied Professional

“A competent and passionate speech and language therapist ,with an experience of over five years in the profession,based in Nairobi.”

About Me

I am a speech and language therapist based in Upper Hill, Central, Kenya. I provide psych and intellectual diagnostic assessments, play therapy, and therapy for ADHD, autism, and learning or development difficulties. I support career planning for clients and families.

Approach

Grounded in Nairobi's communities, my sessions move at a steady, practical pace that respects each family's daily life and priorities. I offer meetings in English and Kiswahili, both face-to-face and online, so learning and follow-up can continue between appointments. Work tends to combine short, structured activities with guided caregiver coaching, observational assessment and goal-focused practice that children and adults can use at home or school. This approach suits families and individuals who value clear steps, measurable progress and collaborative problem-solving.
