Learn More About Anna

Communication therapy builds upon the child's interests to be meaningful and engaging. Anna is learning more about neurodiversity-affirming therapy; the child's strengths and interests drive therapy sessions. Students are active participants in therapy; they are invested in their progress. Multi-sensory supports such as visual schedules, videos, and written prompts accommodate different learning styles. Literacy development is an important part of therapy because students with oral language issues often need help with reading and writing. Anna uses the Wilson Fundations ® program. Anna has been included in the Childhood Apraxia of Speech Association of North America (CASANA) online directory of Speech-Language Pathologists. Anna is a provider with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO of Illinois.

Jennifer, Andersonville

Anna, I just wanted to thank you for the incredibly comprehensive and compassionate evaluation you did for Bobby. We have reviewed it separately, and were struck by how thorough and professional it was we continue to be grateful to you for setting us on this path. I drew Bobby a "schedule" today for his preschool visit and it was a huge help!!! You have literally made me a better mama and I bless you for it.
