Experience

Since graduating from the University of Alberta, I have worked with preschool, kindergarten and school aged children in a variety of settings. I have experience working with children within inclusive preschool, kindergarten and school-age programs, in large and small groups and in one-on-one therapy. I am familiar with functional and standardized assessments for speech and language skills.

I am experienced in working with children who have challenges in a variety of communication areas such as:

• Fluency (stuttering) difficulties, I specialize in using the Lidcombe Program for Early Intervention of Stuttering to work with preschool and kindergarten children who stutter
• Speech sound production, including children with phonological and motor speech disorders
  
• Receptive language (understanding language)
  
• Expressive language (using language)
  
• Social communication, including children with Autism Spectrum Disorder or other social communication difficulties
