Welcome

Tiny Voice Therapy Services is a private clinic providing assessment and support for children from birth to 21. We take a neuroaffirming, relationship-based approach that prioritizes safety, connection, and regulation as the foundation for learning. We honor all forms of communication and partner with families to support each child in expressing themselves in ways that feel authentic and effective for them. Tiny Voice supports children with a range of communication differences, including speech sound differences, childhood apraxia of speech, language differences, gestalt language processing, stuttering, feeding differences, and those who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).
