5 Years, 5 Accomplishments, 5 New Goals

Synapse Pediatric Therapy 5 Year Anniversary Evanston Small Business

In 2015, my husband and I moved to an apartment in Evanston, and I launched my private practice. I had no local connections and, honestly, no idea how to start or operate a business.

What I did have was a vision--a vision for supporting kids and families affected by communication disorders. I would connect with children on their level. I would use my knowledge and enthusiasm in a way that genuinely improved their lives.

That vision propelled me year after year, and this summer we celebrate Synapse Pediatric Therapy’s 5 Year Anniversary! See what we’ve accomplished and where we’re headed.

5 Accomplishments

Over the last 5 years, we have: 

  • Helped hundreds of children conquer their speech and language goals.

  • Grown from a one woman show to a team of three SLPs and our administrative guru, Emily.

  • Added additional offerings: feeding therapy, reading support, and Augmentative & Alternative Communication services.

  • Truly became a part of the Evanston community.

  • Navigated a global pandemic, became virtual therapy wizards, and began serving families all over Illinois.

5 New Goals

In the next 5 years, we are excited to:

  • Open an office location in Evanston (stay tuned!)

  • Incorporate new services (looking at YOU, Occupational Therapy)

  • Continue building a strong, collaborative team that values relationships and evidence-based practice.

  • Partner with researchers at Northwestern University to bridge the gap between academia and clinical practice.

  • Launch a scholarship program that improves access to speech therapy.
