About me

Hi! I'm Laiken. I became a speech-language pathologist (SLP) because I enjoy the intersection of the medical field, education, and communication. I love the connection I have with my clients and the positive impact I see in their lives. I have worked in settings such as outpatient clinics, home health, and inpatient hospitals. Pediatric feeding and swallowing disorders have always been a special interest of mine. I have extensive training in feeding aversion, swallowing disorders, and oral motor deficits. I would describe my clinical style as functional and family-centric.
