About

WHY CHOOSE SPEECH SUITE?

Nicole ( the owner) is a Speech-Language Pathologist with over 10 years of experience. She is bilingual (Spanish) and has worked in hospitals, clinics, and the school systems. She is committed to learning about specialties in feeding and muscle/structural based speech disorders as these areas are often treated incorrectly. In 2018, she established Speech Suite 815 as she noticed a need for pediatric therapy in the Illinois Valley. " I believe in identifying children early. I believe in collaborating with other professionals. I believe in keeping your baby/child's mouth on track for speech and feeding development. Most importantly, I'm a Mom with personal experience in these areas. "
