Empowering you to love communicating with your child

 

I want you to love communicating with your little.

I know that as a caregiver, you want to get all of the trusted help possible for your child. When you begin the process of searching for a speech therapist (officially called a speech-language pathologist/SLP) it can feel like a big decision.

I want to make the choice simple for you. My office is located in Scarborough Maine, just minutes off of both 95 or 295.

  • early intervention

  • articulation, speech sound disorders, phonology disorders

  • stuttering in preschool aged children

  • AAC including PECS and speech-generating devices

  • nonverbal communicators and other communication differences commonly found in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

    breastfeeding concerns
    tethered oral tissue consultation and post-frenectomy therapy
    bottle feeding concerns
    introductions to solids
    transitioning from bottles to cup drinking
