my areas of specialization
Childhood Apraxia of Speech
Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) is a motor speech disorder in which children have difficulty with coordinating the complex movements needed for speech. Treating CAS requires a motor based approach, meaning the treatment's focus must be on movement. I utilize a variety of evidence based approaches, including DTTC and PROMPT, and personalize them to your child's interests and needs. I also love to incorporate music, singing, and children's books into motor speech practice.
Late Talkers and Speech and Language Delays
For children who demonstrate speech and language delays, a family-centered approach is vital. You know your child best, and are your child's first and most important teacher. Through parent and caregiver coaching and support, you will learn how to support and nurture your child's speech and language development through play and everyday routines.
Stuttering
I believe in treating the whole child, not just their stutter. My approach focuses on building your child's confidence and comfort, while reducing tension, frustration, and struggle. Using evidence based practice, I work closely with parents and caregivers to help each family nurture a healthy communication environment, and to help each child communicate and express themselves with comfort and ease.
Speech Sound Disorders
Speech Sound Disorders can affect your child's ability to be understood. They include articulation, phonological, and motor speech disorders. I incorporate evidence based practice into engaging games and activities to make speech therapy motivating, fun, and effective.
