My Approach To Speech Therapy

I take a client-centered approach to therapy, focusing on personalized care that empowers individuals to communicate confidently. By combining evidence-based practices with creativity and support, I create effective treatment plans tailored to each person's needs. My goal is to foster growth, build trust, and help clients thrive in all aspects of communication.

What A Session Looks Like With Me

We’ll begin each session by discussing your challenges and progress, and then work together on targeted activities that focus on improving your skills. I use a mix of evidence-based techniques, interactive exercises, and real-life practice to make therapy both effective and enjoyable. Throughout the session, I provide support and encouragement, helping you build confidence and progress at your own pace.

Fun Facts About Ruthvi

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, son, and dog, Oreo. I love being outside – our family rule is, “If the sun is out, we’re out.” I love exploring different cuisines at new restaurants, traveling to new countries, practicing my photography skills, watching anime, reading about fantasy and dystopian worlds, and painting.
