Throughout her career, Margaret has worked in various clinical settings, including hospitals, schools, and private practices.

Her clinical experience also includes pediatric speech and language disorders, pediatric feeding, oral motor development, and neurodevelopmental differences.
Margaret is ADOS-2 trained and is committed to providing neurodiversity-affirming, child-centered care that recognizes each child’s individual strengths, communication style and developmental needs. She draws from evidence-informed approaches and collaborates closely with families and other professionals to develop individualized treatment plans.
As the owner of Folsom Advanced Speech Therapy, Margaret is passionate about creating a supportive, family-centered practice where children receive highly individualized care. She considers it a privilege to help children develop the communication, oral-motor, and functional skills they need to participate more fully in everyday life. Her greatest reward is seeing children gain confidence and giving families practical tools and strategies they can carry beyond the therapy setting.

Justine is a California-licensed and ASHA-certified Speech-Language Pathologist with nearly five years of experience providing pediatric speech and language services. She earned her Master’s degree in Communicative Sciences and Disorders from California State University, Fresno in December 2021.
Justine has been working with children since 2015. Early in her career, she trained in the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), a naturalistic, play-based treatment model designed for autistic children. This experience sparked her passion for supporting neurodiverse children and their families, which remains an important part of her clinical practice today.
Justine has experience working with children across a variety of settings, including schools, in-home services, play groups, and outpatient pediatric clinics. Her clinical interests include neurodiversity-affirming care, speech sound disorders, language development, oral motor skills, and orofacial myofunctional disorders.
She has completed additional training in PROMPT, TalkTools Oral Placement Therapy, and is a trained myofunctional therapist. Justine values combining evidence-based approaches with individualized, child led play-based therapy to help children build functional communication skills and confidence.
Justine believes therapy should be a positive and collaborative experience for both children and their families. Her goal is to create a supportive environment where children feel comfortable taking risks, are celebrated for their unique communication style, and are empowered to communicate with confidence.
