Session location:

  • Speech-language services are available for children living anywhere in the province of Alberta.

  • In-home therapy or teletherapy are options for families living in the Calgary area.

  • Mileage is determined on a case by case basis. I am located in NW Calgary. Families located nearby will not be charged mileage. Families located beyond the NW should get in touch so that we can determine what makes sense based on driving distance.

  • Teletherapy sessions are 30 minutes or 60 minutes.
