I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of pediatric speech sound disorders (e.g., articulation, phonology, apraxia), language disorders, and late talkers. I also specialize in coaching caregivers to facilitate their young child’s communication development. I feel children demonstrate the greatest progress and carryover when speech-language therapy is fun and engaging. I provide services in my home office located in Cle Elum, in your home, or in a community setting such as your child’s daycare. Location of services determined on an individual basis.
Services Available
PHONE CONSULTATION | 15-20 minutes - FREE If you’re interested in finding out more about our services or just want some direction or advice on whether or not your child may need an evaluation or therapy, give us a call! Don’t wait and see, because the sooner you act on your concerns, the better the outcome will be for your child! SCREENING | 15-30 minutes I offer a brief screening to identify potential deficits in your child’s speech and language. After the screening is completed, I will review the results with you and provide recommendations. If the screening indicates that further evaluation is recommended, the cost of the screening may be applied towards the cost of the evaluation. EVALUATION | 30-90 minutes An evaluation will encompass areas identified during the screening or consultation. You will receive a written report that includes formal assessment results, informal observations, background information, and recommendations. INDIVIDUAL THERAPY | 30-60 mins Therapy will focus on areas of concern that are based on a recent evaluation.

Kitt Kids is a private pay office which means I accept the following forms of payment at the time of service: cash, check, HSA/FSA cards, and credit cards. Many insurance plans have generous out of network benefits available. Please note that families are responsible for familiarizing themselves with their insurance benefits, as well as reimbursement policies as they vary widely. A receipt/superbill/statement can be provided upon request that you can then use to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement for out of network benefits.
Why don't you accept insurance? Dealing with insurance companies can be a battle. If I chose to accept insurance, it would require me to spend countless hours billing and dealing with insurance companies. I have chosen instead to devote my time and resources to providing quality services that will benefit my clients more directly.
