About Us

Diverse Learners is a private speech therapy practice made up of four like-minded clinicians providing in home language, literacy and speech services to children and families in the York and Peel Regions, as well as virtual services across Ontario.

​

Who we work with:

• Preschool and school-age children

• Teens and young adults

• Parents and caregivers

​​

What we do best:​

• Neurodiversity-Affirming speech therapy for receptive and expressive language delays and differences (i.e., Gestalt Language Processors, late talkers)

• Parent Coaching & Counselling around supporting autistic and ADHD children's authentic social development, language and play. We do not do social skills intervention.

• Support for Struggling Readers and Writers

• Treatment of Speech Sound Disorders

​

Our guiding principles:

• Child-led - incorporating your child's interests 

• Strengths-Based - focusing on what your child can do

• Neurodiversity-Affirming - unconditional acceptance of all neurotypes

• Family-Centred - including parents/guardians every step of the way

​​

Children and teens learn when they play, engage and interact with the things that bring them joy. Therefore, we seek to empower your child to find their own individual passions to communicate about. We encourage children to communicate the way they feel most authentically themselves: be that moving, swinging, stimming, fidgeting or singing. With extensive experience working in the public school system, we also support families to advocate for their child's unique communication and learning style in the community and in the classroom. ​

Please be advised that all of our clinicians' caseloads are currently full.
