Welcome to Parkwood Clinic

Parkwood Clinic believes that learning should be a fun and enjoyable experience. Children grow, thrive, and flourish in a rich environment of positive reinforcement and one-on-one interaction.

Our treatment sessions are goal driven and data based to clearly track your child’s improvement and changes in their learning pattern. We use a variety of state-of-the-art technology, toys, and activities to achieve this teaching model.

Expert Pediatric Speech and Language Therapy

In many clinics, therapy is subjective and not tracked from session to session. At Parkwood Clinic, we record data from every session and allow analysis to drive the direction of the sessions. We make it a point to work on every goal in every session. Studies have found that repetition is the key to progress. Parkwood’s data-driven and rigorous nature allows for visible progress both in sessions, and in a child’s natural environment.

What People Say About Us

My son's therapist, Reagan, is not only a great SLP but an incredibly kind human being. She  has great integrity in her work and her commitment to her clients. She connected when I described the struggles I had communicating my son's needs to the school and sat down with us in the most difficult IEP, advocated for my kid. He made so much progress with parkwood than all years put together with other therapists. She saw what was the impeding issue at the core that my son struggles and did not get carried away by the big diagonis  terms. Her goals targeted those and its like a wack a mole - other skills he struggled started improving. At the same time, she also targeted what is demanded at school. She balanced both. I guess that did the trick. Its hard to find good therapist who are dedicated to what they do and best of all love what they do. If a person loves what they do  they go great lengths in what they do. Reagan Barnes is one such amazing kind speech and language therapist.

My son has been seeing Amy at Parkwood over the past year, and it couldn’t be a better fit. Amy is amazing! She has opened up a whole new world of communication for him with his family and peers, and I’ve seen his confidence grow exponentially as a result. After a year, he is still excited to go to his sessions for toys and his “speech jobs.”

I was lucky enough to go to Parkway Clinic for my two children and they helped them a lot, especially Giovanni, who was treated by Danielle. She is a very good teacher and has a lot of patience with them. Giovanni began to say more words and I learned to teach my children.

Miriam Garcia

We have been so impressed with Danielle! She is caring, kind, patient, knowledgeable and FUN! My son took to her quickly, and his articulation improved dramatically with her guidance. He just “graduated” from speech therapy, and we will sure miss Danielle. Great clinic. Great staff.

Courtney Stewart

This place is truly a gem! The atmosphere is comfortable and inclusive. The care and support the team puts into each child and their family is truly amazing, and they do a great job at tailoring each childs needs! The activities are never ending. The staff are so warm and welcoming as well which makes ALL the difference.

We started working with Keely in early 2021 and I appreciated how much thought was put into Covid precautions that allowed for us to have in person visits during this time. While my daughter was initially very reserved during her sessions, she quickly warmed to Keely's enthusiasm and energy. Keely was always patient and thoughtful with Rylee, but also pushed her in the best way possible to meet our goals. We had a great experience working with the clinic and I would highly recommend them.

Our daughter has worked with Amy Morse for the last year and always enjoys going to speech each week. She’s made great progress from her sessions and the home practice that’s provided. The office makes it easy to schedule appointments and understand your insurance benefits. We definitely recommend!

Gabriel Welp

We had the experience of working with Parkwood for a few years! We feel so lucky to have been able to work with Erin Welp for my daughter's speech therapy. Erin went above and beyond to accommodate our daughter and her needs. Erin has a bright and friendly demeaner about her and connected with my daughter giving my daughter motivation to work hard and practice the speech at home as well. My daughter has mentioned to my husband and I, as well as friends and family, on several occasions how much speech with Erin changed her life, and was one of the most impactful moments in her life. My daughter now has graduated from speech and we could not be more appreciative! Thank you Erin, and thank you Parkwood!

My ASD/ADHD child had a wonderful experience with this speech clinic! My child received excellent services that have made a remarkable difference in their communication skills. The dedicated staff and therapists were not only highly professional but also incredibly caring and patient. We saw noticeable improvements in our child's speech and confidence. We're grateful for the positive impact this clinic has had on our family's life. Highly recommended!

Our adult son who is affected by autism started up with speech at Parkwood after school abruptly ended with pandemic closures of his transition program.  He has a lifelong communication disorder. He also struggles to recognize emotions of others. He was becoming increasingly frustrated and it was causing lots of problems for him. He was been working with Jade for more than a year and his speech sessions cover all of these things and he keeps meeting his goals and gaining skills week after week.  We have run into all kinds of behavioral issues over the past couple years, and Jade just rises to the occasion and figures out a way to help our son work through it. All sorts of ways, clever, simple and he's doing incredibly well. He can't wait to go, and she has been patient, understanding and compassionate. Her gentle ways have relived our son of the anxiety associated with his communication. Highly recommend.

Both of my children attend services here. All of the therapists we have seen have been very friendly and helpful. The front desk staff is also very friendly and the location and times have been very convenient. Our family has been very happy with the speech and feeding therapy services they provide and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for great care and friendly staff.

Parkwood Clinic has been amazing for my son. We have seen such improvement in my sons speech since receiving services here. The entire staff is very helpful and accommodating, I cannot speak highly enough about Parkwood!

Courtney Burleson

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Parkwood Clinic! We'd tried speech therapy with a different provider before and it was a painfully frustrating experience. They didn't take my concerns about there being something physically impeding my daughter's speech seriously. Nothing they worked on with her had any noticeable effect. At Parkwood, in our very first intake appointment, I was getting confirmation of all the things my mama heart had suspected, and so much more! Finally, someone was putting into words all the things I couldn't put my finger on or put into words about why my daughter was so very difficult to understand. We have goals now that we're excited about and my daughter is always so happy to go to her sessions ❤️

Incredible staff. We were blown away by how knowledgeable our therapist, Erin Welp, was! She’s great with our kids and the support we’ve received is unlike any other clinic we’ve gone to. Highly recommend!

Julie Nicklas

My son has worked with a Parkwood speech therapist for the past two years (from age 5-7).  Our experience has been fantastic!  We couldn’t ask for a more skilled, patient or supportive therapist.   We highly recommend this group!

Emily Puukka Clark

My son has been attending feeding therapy with Amy M at Parkwood for over a year. He started with a tracheostomy and a g-tube, and now just has the g-tube. We chose Amy because of her experience with both medical devices and knowledge in feeding therapy. In the past year, I’ve seen him make tremendous progress in his feeding skills. He’s eating more, more effective in breaking down his food, swallowing with success, and making big gains in breathing strategies, too! Amy is also warm and easy to connect with. We definitely recommend her for feeding therapy!

Parkwood's Story

Growing up in the Portland Metro Area, Ashley Rose Carter knew she wanted to pursue a career in speech-language pathology from an early age. She received her M.S. in Speech-Language Pathology in 2010 from the University of Washington and worked in a variety of pediatric settings (private practice, hospital, outpatient, early intervention, and public schools) before establishing Parkwood Clinic in 2013. Based on her childhood experiences, Ashley understood the challenges families in Oregon face when it comes to receiving individualized pediatric services. Parkwood Clinic’s mission is to reduce barriers for families to access high quality services and skilled intervention.

Today Parkwood celebrates 10 years of growth, innovation, and family success stories! Parkwood utilizes a collaborative team approach to generalize targeted skills across clinicians, peers, educators and settings. Each Parkwood clinician is carefully selected based on their clinical expertise, empathy, critical thinking, and relationship-building skills. These characteristics remain core values to Ashley and fundamental to Parkwood today.

Ashley and her husband Drew live in West Linn with their three young children. In her spare time, Ashley loves camping, hiking, and caring for her cut flower garden.
