Meet Lindy

Welcome to The Core! 

​

My name is Lindy Bailey, and I am a Registered Speech Language Pathologist. As a play-based, neurodiversity affirming therapist, I have had the pleasure of supporting children and their families in their communication journeys for over 5 years. 

 

I received my Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of British Columbia. I am registered with the College of Care and Health Professionals of British Columbia (CHCPBC) and I am a member of Speech-Language and Audiology Canada (SAC). I am on the Registry of Autism Service Providers (RASP).

​

I have received additional training from:

- Meaningful Speech to help support children who are gestalt language processors

- Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing (DTTC), which is an approach to support children with childhood apraxia of speech

- The Lidcombe Program, an evidence based approach to fluency disorders (stuttering)

- LAMP (Language Acquisition Through Motor Planning) Training, a course outlining best practices supporting Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) users

​

Additionally, I frequently participate in online webinars and short courses to stay current in the topics of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I am passionate about working with individuals with complex communication needs, Autism Spectrum Disorders, and early language intervention. I practice neurodiversity-affirming therapy by respecting and valuing the different communication and learning styles that accompany different neurological makeups. I believe in constant collaboration with families to build realistic, functional communication goals and trusting relationships. I am passionate about play-based therapy, and I look forward to learning and having fun with you and your child!
