History
Katherine Gallagher, the Director of the Community Speech Language and Learning Center, has over 30 years of experience and leads a multidisciplinary team in the treatment of various related communication disorders and related learning disabilities. We engage in direct treatment including assessments, differential diagnosis, and follow up individualized treatment plans to combat a multitude of delays and disabilities. We take special care to include all the environmental conditions, such as parental/teacher/school influences, to enable us to have a complete understanding of the individual's needs. In addition to clinical applications, we have experience in the academic area as certified teachers of kindergarten through 8th grade. This allows us to further understand the impact of all academic factors. We strive to create appropriate treatment plans and coordinate efforts between home and school.
