One the greatest joys of being a speech language pathologist and orofacial myofunctional therapist is the opportunity to work with professionals from a variety of disciplines. Speech, language, feeding and Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy often complement other treatments patients are receiving. I enjoy learning from my colleagues, discovering new ways to provide more effective patient care and make important referrals when necessary. I firmly believe that just as it takes a village to raise a child, it takes an integrated team to provide excellent patient care.
With patient consent, I frequently collaborate with the following professionals:
- Dentists
- Orthodontists
- Otolaryngologists (ENTs)
- Developmental Pediatricians
- Osteopathic Physicians
- Psychologists
