Parkwood Speech, Language & Pediatric Therapy Clinic

At Parkwood Clinic, we understand how hard it can be to watch your child struggle to communicate, eat comfortably, or feel confident expressing themselves. You want to help but sometimes, it’s hard to know where to start.

We believe that communication, feeding, and connection are the building blocks of a child’s growth. Our team helps children strengthen these foundational skills through individualized, evidence-based care that feels personal and encouraging. Every session blends play, creativity, and proven techniques to help your child make real, lasting progress.

Families who come to Parkwood find more than therapy — they find partnership. Together, we celebrate every milestone and build the confidence children need to thrive at home, at school, and in life.

What People Say About Us

Amy Urbina
Love Parkwood! Bridgeport location is great. We have been coming here for a few years now and all Speech Therapist we have had have been great. Reagan is our main clinician and she’s been a huge part of our journey. Our Daughter has Apraxia so if any parents are looking for speech therapy in that area. Highly recommend. We are now doing prompt training as well and Megan and Cassie have been great. Love these ladies.
Hillary Alexander
Amy, Charity, Cassie, and other supportive staff at Parkwood have been really amazing. They know their stuff and are so warm and kind. Working with my 11 year old has been easy and we truly look forward to seeing Amy. My son has been doing pre-exercises and post for a frenectomy and they have supported him through each step. Cannot recommend Parkwood more!
Suzanne Hanley
We’ve been receiving speech therapy at Parkwood for over a year and a half now, I think. The team at Parkwood is always kind and helpful, my son’s speech has improved immensely. When we first started, he was struggling so much just to communicate his wants and needs, now you’d almost never know he had a hard time. Parkwood had helped us so much, and the greatest thing for me to see is how outgoing and confident he is now.
Becky McCann
We've been taking our daughter to Parkwood Clinic for a couple years now and are very happy with the service. My daughter works with Paige and Paige is energetic, friendly and gets results. Every week my daughter asks if we're seeing Paige today and when I tell her yes she gets so excited. Paige is incredible but not only that the entire staff is friendly and knowledgeable. If you need speech services for your children I couldn't recommend Parkwood enough.
Jamie Lynch
My family has been continually impressed by the SLPs at Parkwood! My kiddos can be tough to get engagement from when they first meet people, and the therapists here always get them engaged and interacting with them right away. All of the therapists here are super knowledgeable with AAC devices and they’re even prompt trained which is a key factor for one of my kiddos to get his words out. They’re all so great with kids, very kind and patient!
Brittany Gareau
My son loves coming to Parkwood (both locations). The speech therapists are so great at what they do. He’s come so far since we started our sessions here. The staff is so kind and helpful! He really looks forward to practicing his speech; and he gets upset when we miss sessions. Never a battle to get him to go to speech! Thanks Parkwood! 🫶🏼🙏🏼
Tiffany Auer
My son, who is 3 years old, started coming here in January 2024 & he loves coming here every week to work with Ashley. She is so patient with him & he absolutely adores her! We have seen such an improvement in his speech as she teaches him & us different ways to work with him at home. They are all very kind, helpful to everyone in the family & makes learning fun for all the kids. Thank you, Parkwood Clinic.
Cassandra Robinson
We’ve been coming here for almost a year and have had 3 different speech therapist. All were incredible to work with and has helped my son soooo much in his speech. In just about 6 months, my son has went from saying words no one understands to now speaking in complete sentences and pronouncing words much clearly. The ladies in the front are very kind and helpful. My son loves his therapist, Amy, and the atmosphere the clinic has.
Staishya Siller
Since starting at Parkwood, we have been so happy to have them on our team! We see Danielle and Regan. It’s clear they both enjoy doing what they do! The atmosphere is filled with such kid oriented, and caring people! Great communication as well. Highly recommend!
Aumna Rana
My ASD/ADHD child had a wonderful experience with this speech clinic! My child received excellent services that have made a remarkable difference in their communication skills. The dedicated staff and therapists were not only highly professional but also incredibly caring and patient.

Evelyn Sotto
My daughter goes to Parkwood Clinic and it’s an amazing place, wonderful staff. We have the privilege of working with Danielle, the bilingual teacher, and she’s amazing so understanding and patient. All the staff here are so sweet! When Danielle isn’t able to see my daughter, we get to work with other teachers and they’re all amazing. Nothing but positive energy here!
Matthew McCann
We love Erin and everyone at Parkwood Clinic. Both our daughter and son have received services from them and they have improved so much! Thank you for the support! Highly recommended working with Parkwood!
Erica Hass
Parkwood Clinic has been so helpful for my son. While at Parkwood, he has made up his speech delay and improved so much in many other ways. The quality of care has been consistently top notch, even with the challenges posed by the pandemic. The therapists are so kind and engaging, my kiddo looks forward to seeing them for his sessions. I cannot recommend Parkwood enough!
Melissa Valkanas
My kids have been going to Parkwood for more than 4 years. I love this clinic. They are all amazing. They work with your schedule, they take care of all the insurance issues, they really care about my kids and best of all, they are really, really good at the actual speech part. My kids all have motor planning speech disorders and the Parkwood therapists have worked really hard with my kids to help them get to age-level. I would never go anywhere else!
Jill Carter
We had the experience of working with Parkwood for a few years! We feel so lucky to have been able to work with Erin Welp for my daughter's speech therapy. Erin went above and beyond to accommodate our daughter and her needs. Erin has a bright and friendly demeaner about her and connected with my daughter giving my daughter motivation to work hard and practice the speech at home as well. Thank you Erin, and thank you Parkwood!
Courtney Stewart
We have been so impressed with Danielle! She is caring, kind, patient, knowledgeable and FUN! My son took to her quickly, and his articulation improved dramatically with her guidance. He just “graduated” from speech therapy, and we will sure miss Danielle. Great clinic. Great staff.
Ruby Bloom
We love the Parkwood clinic. My daughter has apraxia of speech and has worked with various people at Parkwood for many years. The team there have positive energy and are very knowledgeable. Hearing my daughter learn to speak after an entire year of therapy with a different state provided speech therapist which gave no results whatsoever made us eternally grateful for Ashley and the tram we’ve worked with all these years. I truly can’t say enough good things about them.
Robin Kersey
We love Parkwood Clinic! Our daughter is showing so much progress, noticeable by family, friends and her teachers. More importantly, my daughters confidence is growing with each visit. Her therapist is spot on, navigating her needs so intuitively. The checkin’s and reporting are so thorough, true data that gives meaning to the results we are seeing. Friendly and professional, responsive to questions and scheduling needs. I highly recommend!

Sharing Our Expertise with the Community

Expert Pediatric Speech and Language Therapy

In many clinics, therapy is subjective and not tracked from session to session. At Parkwood Clinic, we record data from every session and allow analysis to drive the direction of the sessions. We make it a point to work on every goal in every session. Studies have found that repetition is the key to progress. Parkwood’s data-driven and rigorous nature allows for visible progress both in sessions, and in a child’s natural environment.
