Our Mission:

We believe that each child is an individual with strengths and needs.

We provide solutions that work for children and their families.

Our Vision:

All people are fully expressed and heard as a gift to their own life

and as a possibility in their community.

Our Philosophy

Every child is fundamentally unique. By using what we learn about who that child is, how they learn, and what they love, we can help accomplish their communication goals while modeling techniques for parents and caregivers to continue using at home. Children expand their imaginative, social, language, and intellectual skills through play, exploration, nature experiences, and story-telling. By working with parents along with the child, our therapists are able to give families tools to increase communication outside of the office. This accelerates the process of overcoming speech difficulties while building parent knowledge of how they can impact their child's communication and development.

We hope this website answers your questions regarding the care we provide. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us.

What's New?

Speech Therapy in the time of Covid-19:

We have pivoted to virtual speech therapy treatment (known as Tele-Therapy) for many of our families. For some children virtual treatment will not be practical or effective. The decision will be made on a case by case basis in consult with the therapist and the parents. We are striving to continue to provide the best possible services given the circumstances. We are very proud to say that all of our therapists have taken up continuing education in the area of virtual treatment and spent much time in the past few months expanding and refining their knowledge in that area. 

Even with our recent addition, we are committed to growth. Speech Center will bring on another excellent SLP soon. SLPs, please call us! 

We are now interviewing to hire excellent CCC-SLPs for a part-time to full-time position. Our commitment is providing result producing, compassionate therapy, empowering parents and family, and providing excellent clinical evaluations. Please contact our office manager, Olivia, to set up a phone conversation and interview with Diane Hansen. Send your resume via fax or email.
