Meet Kimberley
Hi! I’m Kimberley. I am a Speech Language Therapist/Pathologist with more than 10 years experience working in both New Zealand and Canada. I have worked in both the public (Ministry of Education), and private settings. I am also a full member of the NZSTA (NZ Speech Therapy Association).
Prior to having our first child, my husband and I owned and operated multidisciplinary therapy centres in Auckland that included other Speech Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Psychologists, and Dietitians. I was also on the board for Autism New Zealand for approximately 5 years.
Wanting to slow down for our family, ownership of that business was transferred, and I now work locally on the North Shore in Auckland.
