From first words to reading fluency, Katie provides individualized therapy across four core specialty areas — meeting children where they are and helping them grow.
Schedule a Free ConsultLanguage is the foundation of learning, connection, and self-expression. Katie provides targeted therapy to help children understand language and use it effectively — building the skills that support success in school and in life.
Clear speech opens doors. When children struggle to produce sounds correctly, it can affect their confidence, relationships, and academic performance. Katie uses evidence-based techniques to help children speak with clarity and confidence.
Reading is built on a foundation of sound awareness — and speech-language pathologists are uniquely qualified to address the language-based roots of reading difficulty. Katie's phonological awareness training is especially effective for children with dyslexia.
Mealtime should be a positive experience for the whole family. When children struggle with feeding — whether due to sensory sensitivities, oral motor difficulties, or mealtime anxiety — it affects everyone. Katie brings specialized expertise and patience to transform mealtime challenges.
