Real Life...Real Progress

We bridge the gap between your therapy appointments and everyday life.

Collabracate LLC is an adult and pediatric therapeutic consulting company owned and operated by an ASHA-certified Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and a NBCOT-registered Occupational Therapist (OTR).

We provide evidence-based speech therapy consultation for families, SLP home coaching, and occupational therapy consultation for families at home, schools and daycares — helping adults and children of all abilities build communication, regulation, and functional independence in the environments where they live, learn, and grow.

As experienced AAC consultants, we specialize in low-tech and high-tech forms of AAC coaching for families and schools navigating augmentative and alternative communication.

Our sensory integration consulting supports caregivers and educators in developing practical sensory plans and regulation strategies that work in real life. Whether you're a parent seeking guidance at home, a teacher navigating inclusion, or a caregiver looking for hands-on support, Collabracate's therapeutic consultants are here to empower families and teachers.

Collabracate is based in Northwest Indiana and serves the greater Chicagoland area, with virtual consultation available so that families, schools, and caregivers anywhere can access the support they need. Our team brings decades of combined clinical experience — and a deeply personal commitment — to every family we serve. Meet the Team

Therapists Work With the Client. Collabracate Works With the Team.

Because real progress doesn't happen only during therapy sessions — it happens at the dinner table, in the classroom, during morning routines, and in every moment in between. Collabracate bridges the gap between clinical expertise and everyday life by coaching the people who are there when the therapist isn't.

Every Individual. Every Family. Every Stage of Life.

Collabracate's licensed Speech-Language Pathologist and Occupational Therapist bring decades of combined clinical experience across a wide spectrum of diagnoses and developmental conditions. We have supported individuals and families living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, Apraxia of Speech, Phonological Disorders, Articulation Disorders, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy (CP), Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), degenerative neurological diseases, and dementia — across all ages and settings. Our consultative coaching model is designed to translate clinical expertise into real, usable strategies for the home, classroom, and community, no matter the diagnosis.
