I am a speech-language pathologist who specializes in accent reduction / modification in Montreal. I am licensed by the OOAQ (l’Ordre des Orthophonistes et Audiologistes du Quebec), and I hold my Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) from the American Speech Language and Hearing Association (ASHA). Unlike an accent coach, who is not trained in speech-language pathology, I have developed strategies combining my education and experience in speech-language pathology, linguistics, neuroplasticity, and foreign languages to provide you with a comprehensive approach for the most effective results for learning the North American English accent.
I offer private sessions online where we will work using a personalized, multifaceted approach to retrain your ears in their ability to hear new sounds, your articulators in their ability to produce new sounds, and your brain in its ability to generalize all of this new information so that it can be applied in your day-to-day and professional life.
Here are examples of some of the topics that we will train on that will significantly impact your speech intelligibility:
- Rhythm
- Sentence Stress
- Word Stress
- Prosody
- Linking
- Articulation
Licensing and Insurance
Since I am a licensed speech-language pathologist in the province of Quebec, my services are reimbursable by many insurance companies that offer speech therapy coverage. That said, each plan is different, so verify the details of your plan to know if you are covered. I provide you with a receipt at the end of every session which can be submitted to your insurance provider.
