Growing confidence, one child at a time.
At Maple Tree Speech Therapy, we empower children to communicate and express themselves with confidence.
Like a maple tree that grows and changes with the seasons, we are committed to helping every child progress and succeed in their journey.
Our warm and personalized sessions are designed to nurture speech and language development in an engaging way— through play, storytelling, arts and crafts, obstacle courses, music, and more!
We work closely with families, teachers, and other professionals to make a big difference in each child’s life. As the expert on your child, you will be involved every step of the way.
Speech Therapy Services
Tailored to your child
Early Intervention
Early intervention speech therapy looks like daily life with a toddler! We will help you follow your child’s lead and use helpful communication strategies during your morning routines, mealtimes, park adventures, play dates, bath time, and library trips. Your whole family will gain new ways to help your toddler understand what they hear, express their needs and ideas, and interact socially with others.
Speech Therapy for Articulation
Articulation therapy focuses on helping your child produce speech sounds clearly and accurately. Within sessions, we will teach your child how to produce their challenging sounds or words while playing games or doing hands-on activities to keep them motivated. Our goal is for your child to feel confident about their speech and be understood by those around them!
Language Therapy
Language therapy sessions look like “play with a purpose!” We will support your child’s individual language goals to help them thrive at home, school, and in the community. Your child will gain the skills they need to confidently express themselves, answer questions, tell stories, have in-depth conversations, use age-appropriate grammar, and form meaningful relationships with others.
Speech Therapy for Stuttering
Stuttering and cluttering therapy will address the “stuck moments” in your child’s speech as well as their attitude towards them. Parents are often included in sessions to learn more about stuttering/cluttering and gain strategies that can be used at home— especially for toddlers and preschoolers. If your child is school-aged, we will discuss their unique experiences, help them try a variety of strategies, empower them to advocate for themselves, and cultivate positive perceptions about their speech.
Meet Your Speech Therapist
Anne Mathew, M.S., CCC-SLP
Owner, Speech-Language Pathologist
Hello, I’m Anne! I’m a dedicated speech therapist with a background in acute care hospitals, pediatric hospitals, public schools, outpatient clinics, and private practice settings. I founded Maple Tree Speech Therapy with a mission to meet each child’s unique needs in a holistic way, while working alongside parents and caregivers.
My sessions focus on building strong relationships and empowering parents to become leaders in their child’s communication journey. I provide families with actionable steps they can take right away to create meaningful change. The details of your child’s life—their experiences, family culture, interests, temperament, and values—all matter to me. I am committed to understanding what makes your child who they are and how we can work together to help them thrive.
Outside of my work, I love spending time with my family, exploring national parks through camping and hiking, discovering new restaurants, and enjoying all the exciting activities our city offers!
