I’m Yvelle, speech-language pathologist and founder of The Speech Element. I’m a proud Brooklyn, New York native, and lover of all things language and design. Hence, communication curation! I’ve been a practicing clinician for 10+ years, and currently provide early intervention for children ages 18 months to two years and speech-language-literacy therapy for children 3 and up. While I enjoy working with children, I am equally passionate about assisting adults in improving and/or enhancing their communication skills to best serve their lifestyle. When I’m not conducting therapy, you can catch me on my roller skates, a yoga mat, or the dance floor :-).
