About

About Platform

I'm Kristen, the owner and clinician at Platform Speech and Language, LLC. From skilled nursing facilities to pediatric outpatient care, I started this practice to continue the line of work I care deeply about, in a way that aligns with my commitment to uplifting those who do not have a platform, due to differences, illness, injury, and identity. I look forward to connecting with your family!
