Nozomi Speech Therapy

Nozomi Speech Therapy I'm a speech therapist with 20 years of experience and a heart for helping people to communicate their best. I see individuals of all ages. Full circle. . .

I've had a lot of questions about my name:

Nozomi is a Japanese noun '望み (のぞみ)' that means 'wish' or 'hope'. It refers to a desire or aspiration - a goal to achieve or a dream to fulfill. It is my hope that everyone coming to Nozomi Speech Therapy will reach their goals to communicate more effectively. I first learned of the word "望み" when I was an undergraduate, teaching English at Nozomi Church

in Japan. Now I am realizing my own wish to work with families, and I'm teaching again in a church where the Bible is taught, bringing Hope in it's truest form to anyone with a heart to receive it. And I just love the way that word NOZOMI sounds and looks.

Back by popular demand, I am offering the More Than Words program again. I have room for 4 more families. It is a program for children under 7 who have the communication challenges seen in autism or similar developmental challenges. Message me any questions - there are some grant/scholarship opportunities. We start next month!

If you can't get to the library today, watch it on YouTube and introduce on the screen then your child will be more likely to attend to the book as it is familiar when you do have time to check it out.
