🫧 Welcome Karolina, Our Newest SLP

Please join us in welcoming Karolina, who started with us in October and has been seeing clients in the afternoons.

Karolina is passionate about helping children find joy in communication and making therapy a place they look forward to. She believes that building strong relationships is at the heart of growth, which is why she takes time to understand each child and incorporate their unique interests into sessions. One of her favorite reminders for families is to “model without expectations,” encouraging them to celebrate small steps along the way.

She also holds onto a quote she first heard in graduate school: “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” -Lao Tzu

We forgot to take pictures until the very end but our fourth annual Fall Open House was such a fun and cozy time 🍂

Thanks to all who came out to celebrate Fall and the power of connection- we love getting to be a part of an amazing network of caring professionals.

Have you met Natalie yet? Natalie joined us this summer and is leading a free caregiver-child class on Mondays at Synapse at 10am.

Stop by on a Monday at 10 or check out her bio if you are looking for speech therapy for your child.

Natalie is inspired by the natural joy, wonder, and curiosity that children bring to each session. She loves helping families reach their goals through play-based therapy, and believes that every child deserves to feel supported in discovering their own path to communication.

🌟 Good news for last-minute planners! We’ve extended registration for two of our favorite summer groups that start next week:

🎨 Craft Crew (ages 6–7 · Thu 3-4 PM)
• Tie-dye, slime, friendship bracelets—each week is a new hands-on project.
• Led by Jenny, an experienced OT, so every activity builds fine-motor and social-emotional skills while kids have a blast creating with friends.

🎈 Preschool Connect (ages 3–4 · Tue 1–2 PM)
• Cooperative games, pretend-play adventures, and plenty of giggles
• Led by Natalie, a pediatric SLP, whose calm, joyful energy- and musical-theatre flair- fill each session with connection and creativity, guiding children toward clear, confident communication while they make new friends through cooperative play.

We still have a few seats open and would love to fill them with kids who are ready to create, imagine, and connect. Groups kick off NEXT WEEK and meet once a week through early August.

Want details? Comment below or send me a quick message. Feel free to tag a friend who might love this too! 🥳
