About Lighthouse Speech Therapy
Lighthouse Speech Therapy was created out of a deep desire to provide a more holistic approach to speech therapy. Having worked in both clinic and school settings, Caylee recognized the need for a more personalized and family-centered approach to speech therapy. She wanted to create a space where families could feel supported and empowered, where they could learn how to best support their child's and language development, and where they could feel confident in their ability to navigate the challenges that may come with it.
At Lighthouse Speech Therapy, we’re here to support families as they help their children grow and thrive in their communication journey. Just like a lighthouse guides the way, we aim to provide guidance and a welcoming space for progress and connection. Our goal is to foster growth, collaboration, and acceptance for every child we work with.
