About the Owner

Owner and licensed speech-language pathologist Arielle Parsons was born and raised in  New York. Arielle obtained a Bachelor of Arts from Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana. She completed her Master of Science degree in Communication Disorders at the Pennsylvania State University at University Park. Since earning her master's degree, Arielle has worked in a variety of professional settings. She began her career providing evaluation and speech-language therapy services to children from one month to five years of age in natural and center-based settings. She later worked both as an independent contractor and as a clinic employee in natural environments and outpatient clinic settings, serving children from 1 year of age through 13 years of age. Throughout her career, Arielle was fortunate enough to work alongside professionals from several other clinical disciplines, including physical and occupational therapists, special educators, and social workers. Working as part of a transdisciplinary team helped Arielle develop the ability to see the needs of the child as a whole, and to understand how those needs might impact the child's speech and language skills. Arielle moved to Cary, NC in 2015. She has been enjoying the abundant warmth and sunshine here. In her free time, she enjoys taking her daughters to experience the natural and cultural resources in the area, or just curling up with a good book.
