Shelley Chow

Hi, I’m Shelley! My path to becoming a speech-language pathologist began with two lifelong passions: healthcare and language. Growing up as a trilingual child and navigating my own chronic health conditions sparked my interest in how people communicate, connect, and advocate for themselves. Once I discovered speech-language pathology, everything clicked.

I’ve worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, outpatient clinics, and schools, supporting children and families with a wide range of communication needs. My clinical interests include neurodiversity-affirming care, sensory regulation, and supporting autistic individuals through functional, strengths-based therapy.

Additionally, I’ve completed specialized training in neurodiversity-affirming practices, trauma-informed care, sensory regulation and its impact on communication, and assessment and treatment approaches for autistic individuals.

I take a holistic, client-centered, and family-focused approach to care. I believe therapy works best when it’s individualized, meaningful, and connected to a child’s daily routines and interests. My goal is to help clients build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and become empowered self-advocates.
