Pronouns: she/her/hers
Lindsey’s therapy-based journey started as a teenager when she joined her family and friends in volunteering for an organization that customized bikes and trikes for kids and adults with mobility needs in Reno-Sparks, Nevada. Through those initial experiences, Lindsey found her way into Speech Pathology!
Lindsey is now a dual speech-language pathologist and board-certified lactation consultant. She received her Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Portland State University and a Bachelor’s in Speech Pathology and Audiology from the University of Nevada, Reno. Lindsey received her International Board Certified Lactation Counselor credentials through IBCLE shortly after completing the Pathway 2 Program through the University of California, San Diego, Extension Campus Lactation Education program. Since 2019, she has worked with pediatric clients in private practice settings, outpatient hospitals, public schools, the Navajo Nations Unified School District, and early intervention settings. In 2022 she moved to Central Oregon to work with clients in early intervention and private practice settings.
In her spare time, Lindsey loves baking old and new recipes, learning to play bass guitar, exploring Central Oregon with her pup and partner, and enjoys game nights, skiing, camping, yoga, anything in nature, and traveling.
