Connection

Christie believes her rapport and connection with your child is the main priority in her therapy sessions.  She believes children should feel safe and regulated in order to learn.

Fun

Sessions are planned to be engaging and incorporate movement and play. Communication grows within the context of shared joy.

Family-centered

Christie listens to and addresses your concerns and goals for your child.  Her desire is to help families and caregivers to learn how to encourage speech and language growth outside of therapy time.
