Hi, I’m Traci.

I’m a Speech-Language Pathologist and Orofacial Myologist. I help children communicate more clearly, comfortably, and confidently in their everyday lives.

Work With Me

This work is personal to me.

After completing speech therapy as a child, I decided early on that I wanted to become a speech-language pathologist. That experience continues to shape how I approach therapy today—support should feel encouraging, practical, and genuinely helpful.

I earned my bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Eastern Illinois University and began my career working in schools across Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, and Colorado.

Over time, my work expanded beyond direct therapy. I supported early communication through a nonprofit in Boulder, developed programs focused on caregiver–child interaction, and helped school districts across the country implement teletherapy services.

Those experiences reinforced something I still believe today: small, consistent changes in communication can have a lasting impact.

But I always missed working directly with children and families. In 2024, I returned to hands-on therapy and launched my own practice—bringing my experience into a more personalized, one-on-one setting.

I take a whole-child approach to therapy.

I take time to understand who your child is—their personality, interests, and what motivates them—not just the skills they’re working on.

Alongside speech and language, I look at the underlying patterns that support communication. This might include how your child understands and expresses language, as well as how their mouth, tongue, and breathing are functioning. These pieces are closely connected to how children communicate, eat, and move through daily life at home and in school.

By looking at the whole picture, therapy is more meaningful, more engaging for your child, and more likely to lead to lasting progress.

Sessions are always:

  • Individualized

  • Practical

  • Designed to fit into real life

The man, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a blue t-shirt with a red bird logo, is holding hands with the young boy. The boy is looking at the camera with a surprised expression, wearing a striped t-shirt and a hat. Trees and mountain scenery are visible in the background.

Outside of work, I’m a parent myself.

Parenting has deepened my understanding of how important clear, supportive guidance can be when you’re concerned about your child.

I aim to make therapy feel approachable, collaborative, and genuinely useful from the very first session.

If this approach feels like the right fit, I’d love to learn more about your child.
