Victoria Vanderaa

Licensed Speech-Language Pathologist (M.S., CCC-SLP)

Accepts 55 insurance plans

Hi! I'm Victoria. My grandma was a speech-language pathologist (SLP)! She introduced me to the profession while I was deciding on a career in high school. I have always enjoyed working with children, and I knew I wanted to be in the medical field to some capacity. I am trained in LAMP and certified in the Hanen approach (More Than Words). I have worked in settings such as schools, outpatient pediatric clinics, outpatient hospitals, and telepractice. I would describe my clinical style as functional and individualized/personalized.
