Service introduction

I work with children with a wide range of communication challenges including, but not limited to, the following areas of development: receptive & expressive language delays/disorders, articulation & speech sound disorders, phonological/pre-literacy skills, childhood apraxia of speech, communication & autism disorders, and oral-motor/feeding delays. For children 5 years and older, my focus is on treating articulation or speech sound disorders.
