Bio
I am a Speech-Language Pathologist who works primarily with the pediatric and school-aged populations. I use play-based therapy as a way to help children with their speech and language needs. I have much experience with children with complex developmental needs and neurological disorders (e.g., Autism Spectrum Disorder), as well as have a special interest and experience in working with children using Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) and with literacy difficulties. I am on the RASP list, have many different Hanen certifications (e.g., It Takes Two to Talk and More Than Words), and am an official BC Early Hearing Program trained SLP.
