CO Springs Clinical Coordinator

What got you interested in working with FRPT?

Julie’s magnetic personality and passion for the field. Having met multiple therapists at ECLC, who were happy at FRPT left me with a great impression of the company.

 

What do you love most about being a speech therapist?

I live for those lightbulb moments, where you’ve been wracking your brain on how to best help a child, and you finally crack the code on how to write their goals, approach their sessions, or what level of support to provide.

 

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

I hike, climb, play games, travel around the country and world, work on my cars, race my cars, read, and watch far too much TV. I have Zoo and Pike’s Peak memberships, which enable me to adventure to fantastical places in 30 minutes or less. I have a fantastic whiskey and gin collection to boot.

 

What is something most people don’t know about you?

I have ADHD, and working with my kids in therapy has helped me realize new ways to work through the struggles I face. They’ve also helped me realize that ADHD can be a blessing just as much as it used to feel like a curse.

 

What is your favorite activity to encourage learning and growth with kids?

Whatever activity they can actually fit into their daily lives. It’s hard enough being a parent. I want them to see therapy as a gateway to better things, rather than a task that they dread.
