Meet Rebecca, Owner of the Speech Hub
"As a speech pathologist of almost 20 years and a parent myself, I understand the worry parents face today about whether their children are meeting their language milestones. Frequent school absences, as well the time required to drive to and from therapy and other activities has made it difficult to find the right therapist. I started the Speech Hub because I wanted to offer a way for families to have easy access to the speech services they need- this is not easily accomplished by walking into a room for 30 minutes to "work on their speech," and then go an entire week losing the skills they worked on waiting for their next session. I wanted to make sure all our families feel confident in helping their children to continue addressing their goals and making progress every day, and the best way to do that is to have allow time just for you to not only answer your questions, but offer actual training for so you can continue their speech therapy at home all week long. We know this method will help your child succeed and possibly shorten how long they need to attend speech therapy! I look forward to working with you!"
