I am a speech and language therapist with over 10 years experience.In rehabilitation work, it is important for me to establish a good connection with the child and build speech therapy sessions around motivating activities; a child learns best when they feel good and have enjoyable things to do. My wish is to also work closely with the family, daycare, and school, listening to their wishes and thoughts. My goal is to offer ideas and methods to the child's important adults so that daily life can run as smoothly as possible.
I graduated as a speech therapist in 2012, and I have worked with children throughout my career. I have experience in Kela speech therapy, remote speech therapy, municipal speech therapy services, and assessment work in specialized healthcare. I have had a wide variety of clients, but I have particularly focused on the rehabilitation of speech motor disorders, phonological development, linguistic and developmental difficulties, and interaction. I have extensive experience with augmentative and alternative communication methods, and I utilize these methods diversely in my work.
I work mainly in finnish, but do guidance also in english.
