Welcome to
FOCUS ON FUN
Speech Therapy for Kids

I’m a Speech-Language Pathologist based in Calgary, offering in-person services for children - either in your home or in my office, which is equipped with a sensory gym to support regulation and engagement. I’m a kid at heart and can’t wait to connect, play,
and problem-solve alongside your child. I also believe in the power of parent coaching - you’ll be encouraged to play an active role in sessions and carry over strategies into everyday life. Therapy is neurodiversity-affirming, play-based, and tailored to your
child’s unique needs - because it should feel meaningful, natural, and FUN!

assessments

I offer comprehensive speech and language assessments tailored to your child’s needs. I use a combination of standardized tests and informal tools to build a well-rounded picture of your child’s communication strengths and challenges. Assessment results guide individualized therapy goals and next steps.

therapy

Therapy sessions are child-led and play-based, with a focus on building connection, confidence, and communication. I draw on neurodiversity-affirming practices to support each child in ways that respect their unique strengths and preferences. Parents are welcome and encouraged to be part of the process.

collaboration in speech therapy

consultation

I offer consultative support to families, educators, and teams seeking guidance on how to best support a child’s communication. Whether you have questions about AAC, language development, or daily communication strategies, I’m here to collaborate and help you feel confident in your role.

I support all children as they are. My practice affirms different ways of thinking, communicating, and connecting — every child deserves respect and autonomy.
