MELISSA REED

Director, Clinical Coordinator
Speech-Language Pathologist

Melissa is an experienced Speech-Language Pathologist who has worked with a wide range of preschool and school-aged children. She is known for her enthusiasm and ability to make all clients feel at ease during sessions. Her passion and dedication in helping children reach their full potential is clear. She consistently involves parents, teachers and other caregivers so that strategies are carried out in day-to-day activities and routines.

Melissa has experience supporting children with their verbal and non-verbal language, interaction and play skills, speech (articulation), pragmatic (social), and pre-reading/reading skills. She is certified in Hanen (It Takes Two to Talk, More than Words and Target Word), Social Thinking, Reference and Regulate and Lidcombe. Melissa is the SLP at the DragonFly School for Learners with Down Syndrome in Ottawa where she runs social-language groups to increase social skills and peer relationships.

Melissa attended McGill University where she completed her bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Linguistics, and her Masters degree in Speech-Language Pathology. In her free time, she likes being outside and spending time with family and friends.
