Please read the descriptions below carefully in order to book with the most appropriate clinician as not all of our Speech-Language Pathologists work with every population/area of communication). If you have concerns with more than one problematic, please book under your main concern. If you have questions or not sure who to book with for your communication concerns, we are just an email or phone call away!
