Pillar Speech Therapy, LLC is short for “Caterpillar Speech-Language and Myofunctional Therapy”.

It was inspired by The Very Hungry Caterpillar, by Eric Carle. I love this book, reading it aloud to a preschool classroom set me on a path to becoming a speech-language pathologist. Read my full story in the About section.

I am an advocate for play-based and child-directed therapy; therefore, each session is tailored to your child. It can be structured or unstructured, but I typically incorporate both into my sessions. The amount of time spent in a structured setting (sit and drill the concepts) depends on many factors: age, attentiveness, ability level, etc. I always incorporate play and fun, positive reinforcement, and functional activities to build skills, and promote carry-over and generalization to all settings and communication partners.
