Speech-Language Pathologist
B.S. Communication Disorders & Sciences, University of Oregon
M.S. Communication Disorders & Sciences, University of Oregon
ASHA & Oregon Board Certified. Continuing education courses completed in: SOS (Sequential-Oral-Sensory) Approach to Feeding, Get Permission Approach to Feeding (The Cycle of Effective Feeding Therapy and Parent Participation in Responsive Feeding Therapy), PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Targets) (Projected 2025), and more.
Kristen enjoys assessing and treating early intervention, articulation, sensory feeding, fluency, and expressive/receptive language, along with notable experience in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), social communication, selective mutism, dysphagia, and AAC (augmentative and alternative communication).
Kristen has been a part of the Parkwood team since 2023. She loves getting to work with children every day, especially the birth to 5 population. During graduate school, she completed clinical placements at OHSU Hospital in the acute care unit and Portland Public Schools, as well as completing research related to the Combined Aphasia and Apraxia of Speech Treatment (CAAST) approach.
Outside of work, Kristen enjoys exploring new places to eat around Portland with friends/family, watching trashy reality TV shows (The Bachelor and The Kardashians are her guilty pleasure), and cuddling with her pets!
Parkwood Clinic is a pediatric private practice that provides individualized, evidence-based, and family-centered speech and language services.
Most children say first words by 12 months and combine words by 18–24 months. If speech is delayed, a speech-language pathologist can offer helpful support.
Expressive language helps children share thoughts and feelings. Struggles with vocabulary or sentence structure may signal the need for speech therapy support.
The SOS Approach to Feeding recognizes that eating involves sensory experiences, not just taste. Food chaining respects your child’s comfort level and helps them gradually accept new foods without pressure.
