Debbie DeKroon
Speech-Language Pathologist
About Me
Debbie DeKroon is a registered Speech-Language Pathologist who provides fun, evidenced-based services to children and their families in the Durham region. With the long-held belief that communication opens up the world to children from the time they are born, Debbie places children and their families at the very centre of her treatment. Her approach is fun and functional, whether the goal is to teach children to use nonverbal communication, to speak more clearly, or to develop their language and reading skills.

Communication opens up a child’s world!
We can help children in the following areas:
1.
Speech sound production - articulation, phonology, motor speech, childhood apraxia of speech
2.
Receptive and expressive language
3.
Pre-literacy and literacy skills - phonological awareness, decoding, reading comprehension and writing
4.
Social communication and play skills
5.
Augmentative and alternative forms of communication

Fluency, including stuttering
Speech and language services are covered by most extended health insurance plans and may be tax deductible.
