Introduction

Hi, I'm Katia Shank, a speech-language pathologist who works with children from birth till 18. I take a play-based and neurodiversity affirming approach to my sessions to ensure my clients are comfortable and having fun while learning new skills. My specialities include early intervention, speech sound disorders, autism, gestalt language processing, Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS), feeding, and expressive and receptive language. I am an NLA certified clinician and holding trainings in Dynamic Tactile and Temporal Cueing (DTTC) for CAS, the Simon Says approach for orofacial and myofunctional therapy, and the Complexity approach for phonological disorders. I offer in-home and teletherapy services. Please reach out for a consultation to find out if I am a good fit for your family!

    Beaming Review

    Katia is an incredibly skilled therapist who's amazing at child-led, play-based therapy and truly knows how to meet kids where they're at. She takes the time to explain the why behind her approach and gives families practical strategies they can actually use at home. I would definitely recommend her to families!
