20 years experience in pediatric Speech Language Therapy

 Meghan now has 20 years of experience working with Children and Adults with Speech and Language Disorders, including those that are nonverbal (or minimally verbal) from a variety of underlying diagnoses (Ex; Autism, Traumatic Brain Injury, Cerebral Palsy, Stroke, Developmental Delays). Meghan has utilized a combination of Nacy Kaufman's Apraxia therapy approach, Linda Mood Bell's "Sounds in Syllables, "  and Multi-Sensory Language Development approach, to assist her nonverbal clients in becoming verbal, at the same time providing a strong phonetic basis, which encourages early reading/spelling development. Meghan's pediatric clients often become verbal at the same time as acquiring early reading/spelling ability. Augmentative Communication ( from low tech to high tech), spelling with letter tiles, recognizing the100 first words in print, picture exchange communication, use of communication boards, using text to speech devices, and using dynamic display voice output devices, are also used as a bridge during verbal speech acquisition or as an alternative means to communicate if verbal communication is not the ideal end goal for her clients.
