Kindred Speech and Language

Hi, I’m Sam, a speech-language pathologist and the founder of Kindred Speech and Language. I provide speech and language therapy across the lifespan, from pediatrics through adults, with a special focus on working with pediatrics. I’m especially passionate about supporting individuals with articulation, expressive and receptive language, and reading needs, including services for those with dyslexia. At Kindred, clients can expect thoughtful, individualized care from the very first step. I begin with a comprehensive evaluation to truly understand each person’s strengths, challenges, and goals. Therapy is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to real-life communication needs—always centered on building confidence, clarity, and meaningful connection. I’m deeply committed to lifelong learning, both as a clinician and as a person. I intentionally take time to deepen my understanding of speech-language pathology, stay current with research, and reflect on how growth, empathy, and connection shape the therapeutic process. I believe the best outcomes happen when clinical expertise is paired with genuine care, curiosity, and respect for each individual’s story. Outside of my work, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially outdoors. Whether we’re ranching, riding side-by-sides, or camping, those moments of connection and shared experience deeply influence how I approach both life and care. At the heart of Kindred is the belief that communication thrives in belonging. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel understood, empowered, and truly partnered in their care.
