Meet Aaron
Since I became a speech-language pathologist in 2018, my passion has been helping children to find their voice. Throughout my my career, I have had the privilege of working with kids from preschool to high school. Watching how kids develop from early elementary through high school has provided me with a unique and holistic perspective to inform my assessment and treatment practices to meet the needs of each child and their families. I decided to start Precision Speech and Language Therapy because I believe I can do more for my clients in a private setting.
I currently maintain my ASHA, DOPL, and USBE license and have worked with a variety of communication challenges including speech sound disorders, language disorders, Autism (ASD), intellectual disability, stuttering and use of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).
Some of my hobbies include playing board and tabletop roleplaying games, hiking, and rock hounding. My spouse and I have a Border Collie named Teddy. Teddy and I have been working on using buttons to communicate with some success.
I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and to help your child to achieve their full potential.
