Hello! I am Kayla Peterson.
I am a Speech Language Pathologist, founder and owner of Connect the Dots Pediatric Therapy LLC.
I started this journey because I am passionate about guiding children and families to communication success. I treat a multitude of speech and language disorders ranging from birth to adulthood. I have gained extensive experience in the field, by working in a wide variety of settings including home visits, clinical based, and public schools.
I believe establishing strong positive relationships with both children and their families is the key to successfully making progress and reaching long term goals.
“Kayla is everything you could want in a speech pathologist for your child. She is patient and persistent. She is good at adapting to moods and emotions and altering her sessions to still achieve our goals. She has always gone above and beyond and truly cares about our child.”
