Child Speech & Language Therapy

Rooted in Connection & Play

Compassionate care in Colorado that helps your child build confidence—in-person or online

Let’s work together to celebrate your child’s voice.

Imagine your child expressing their creativity at school or sharing their thoughts with loved ones for the first time. It’s possible with the support of play-based, neuro-affirming techniques. My approach helps your child grow in a way that feels natural to them and meaningful to you.

It’s not easy finding the right care for your child.

Especially when waitlists delay the help they need. You’re left feeling unsure, trying to make the best decisions alone. And when therapy sessions feel impersonal, it’s common to feel like your child’s one-of-a-kind strengths are overlooked.

Your child deserves more—a practice that recognizes your child’s potential and helps them truly shine.

I meet your child where they are and we grow from there.

  • Feel assured in the care you choose.

  • Discover the way your child connects with the world.

  • Be heard by a professional who understands.

  • Build a partnership grounded in trust.

Everyone has a seat at the table here, and every child’s story matters.

Hi, I’m Ryan!

I FOUNDED DAILEY COMMUNICATION BECAUSE EVERY CHILD DESERVES TO BE SEEN, HEARD, AND EMBRACED FOR WHO THEY ARE.

Growing up neurodivergent myself, I faced many of the same challenges your child might be experiencing now. My experience taught me that no one deserves to feel misunderstood and that every child has the capacity to connect in a way that’s meaningful to them.

Since earning my Master’s degree in Communication Disorders in 2011, I’ve dedicated over a decade to helping children learn and grow in various environments: Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Children’s Hospital of Colorado, schools, homes, and private practices—including effective teletherapy for remote communities.

I use evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming approaches that value your child’s individuality. Together, we’ll partner up to discover your child’s one-of-a-kind qualities and make sure they feel uplifted every step of the way. 

It’s also my job to provide you with more knowledge, new strategies, and the support you need to advocate for your child. You’ll walk away equipped with the tools to navigate this journey with more clarity.

I promise you: your child can communicate confidently–without being forced into a mold that doesn’t honor their way of being.
