Kari Kuroiwa, M.S., CCC-SLP

Owner, Speech-Language Pathologist

I am a pediatric speech therapist with over a decade of experience working with children in educational settings. I have had the pleasure of collaborating with families, educators, advocates, mentees, and other specialists to help my clients reach the goals that matter most to them.

 

I believe that communication is essential for human connection, and I am dedicated to helping my clients clearly express themselves, confidently form relationships with others, and become more independent in their everyday lives!

“Kari can be described as intelligent, hard-working, a creative thinker, a collaborative teammate, and a problem solver… the type of person who can balance leadership with skill. She takes care of business while taking care of people." - Colleague

Speech

We know that children learn best during fun and playful activities, so our speech therapy sessions incorporate art, music, games, play, and technology! Our goal is to help your child practice challenging speech sounds and patterns in an encouraging and motivating environment.

Language

Language skills are central to social interactions and academic learning. We use a variety of engaging activities to support your child's language growth - helping them confidently speak, read, spell, write, and even socialize with friends and classmates!

Literacy

Early literacy starts with phonemic (sound) awareness skills to help with reading and spelling words. This takes practice and repetition, so we use a multimodal approach and design sessions to be full of motivating opportunities to apply new skills.
