Making effective communication accessible for Minnesota's families and children

I am a Minnesota-based Speech-Language Pathologist with a background in Child Development. As a state-licensed clinician and holder of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association’s Certificate of Clinical Competence, you can count on quality, individualized services for you and your loved ones.
I currently offer speech/language services to Minnesota residents under age 18 for articulation, language, and stuttering therapy. I also offer caregiver coaching for families and individuals using Augmentative and Alternative Communication devices (AAC), or those who may benefit from AAC.
These services are provided in-home for areas within 30 miles of the Champlin Public Library, with telehealth or in-home services with a travel fee for those living outside the given area.
