Autorenporträt

Sophie MacKenzie has practised as a speech and language therapist (SLT) in both acute and rehabilitation settings. She began her first academic role in 2007, combining clinical management of the acute SLT team at Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust with teaching at the University of Greenwich and Canterbury Christ Church University. She moved into full-time academia in 2010 and has taught EDS to both undergraduate and postgraduate pre-registration students, as well as post-registration master's students, at City St Georges, University of London. Her PhD focused on exploring spirituality with people with expressive aphasia, and person-centred and holistic care remains her passion, as well as the nurturing of future clinicians. Sophie is the author of Working with Adults with Eating, Drinking and Swallowing Needs and is currently a senior lecturer in SLT at Health Sciences University, UK.
