Criscynthia Paredes, MA, CCC-SLP

Personal Statement

My philosophy of care focuses on providing quality services to patients and their families through the use of evidence based practice and interdisciplinary collaboration. I have extensive experience in treating and evaluating culturally and linguistically diverse populations exhibiting a variety of communication disorders (e.g., receptive/expressive/pragmatic language, articulation/phonology, fluency, etc.) in both home health and outpatient settings. I strongly believe in the importance of establishing rapport and open communication with the families I serve, as well as providing resources to empower parents and/or caregivers to play an active role in their child’s plan of care. I currently specialize in providing speech and language therapy services in both Spanish and English in the West Campus outpatient clinic.

Clinical Interests:

My clinical interests include bilingualism, augmentative and alternative communication, cognitive disorders and pediatric dysphagia.
