Speech Language Pathologist

About Melanie

I’m an energetic and family-focused Registered Speech Language Pathologist. I graduated from Western University in London, Ontario and moved to Edmonton with my husband and our sweet little cat, Luna.

I use a play-based approach to target a variety of communication needs and help families reach their goals. My areas of interest are speech sound disorders (ages 0-12) and early language intervention (ages 0-3). I am certified to provide the It Takes Two to Talk® The Hanen Program® for Parents. My goal is to ensure families have all the necessary tools and strategies to help their child thrive.

I’m so excited to work with families in Edmonton and the surrounding area!
