I am a highly skilled speech therapist with close to 30 years of experience. My expertise is in stroke, brain injury and other neurological diagnoses and I have worked at all levels of care, so I understand the journey you have taken to get to this point. I'm also experienced with head and neck cancer recovery including dysphagia and voice therapy. Your therapy plan is tailored to your needs, so you can achieve the goals most important to you and receive support and practical strategies along the way. Although I am based in Utah, I have had great success with teletherapy online with clients in California.

Take a step toward confident communication at Summit Speech Therapy. All of the resources at our clinic are dedicated to helping our clients improve speech, language and cognitive skills. Better communication starts today! Summit Speech Therapy Inc, was created to improve client and family access to Speech-Language Therapy provided by well trained and knowledgeable Speech-Language Therapists. We treat clients of all ages for a wide range of communication and swallowing needs. After working for years in the local schools, therapy clinics, and hospital settings, we found a disconnect between what was needed, and what was offered and available. As SLP’s we believe that these needed services are fundamental to increasing quality of life. We grew tired of the school systems limiting appropriate treatment frequency due to budget and staffing restraints. We’ve worked in the “comprehensive” clinics where speech therapy is only an “after-thought,” and not given adequate resources. We created a clinic where speech services are our primary focus. We realize that all ages are affected by speech-language needs, as communication is a necessary life skill. We love working with the pediatric and youth population. We are also trained to meet the unique needs of adults. We want to not only increase access to these all-important services, but to do so in a timely manner.
