Therapist in Tampa, FL & ?? for Kim McCall

March 20, 2005

I am way behind on the messages recently. I did get on this morning

and jump around a bit on the board. I believe someone may have

posted looking for a good therapist in the Tampa area. There is a

really awesome therapist in Valrico. Her name is Kogut

Keller. She was my son's first therapist at the children's hospital

in my town until she moved there. She is originally from NY & has

had much experience with apraxic children. If anyone is interested

in contacting her just email me & I will get the info to you.

Also Kim McCall mentioned there is a apraxic preschool in Tampa. I

did not know about this. Could you please get me more information on

this as I have had 4 new families join my Tampa Bay area support

group & would love the information. From what I have found there are

communication classrooms that deal with all type of communication

disorders or VE classes. That is really interesting to me if there

is something like that. I am seeing a big number of parents

contacting me from Tampa that have apraxic children but can't imagine

the numbers high enough for a school just dealing with apraxia.

Please email me more info on this so I can pass on to the parents in

my group.

Just to update anyone on my now soon to be 7 year old son that is in

mainstream 1st grade. He was nonverbal at age 3 1/2 & now at age 7

next month is doing great. He is a little delayed in reading but we

are working on that. He starts the earobics program after spring

break. And is great at math. He loves school this year & is VERY

popular especially with the girls (3 call the house). I am hoping

working really hard over the summer we can get him caught up.

Hope to get back on the list as a active reader & poster, happy

spring break to all enjoying spring break this week with your

children.

, want to come over to my coast soon???

Hi Tammy:

The preschool is through USF the College of Communication Science Disorder it is

not affiliated with the hillsborough county school system it is private pay and

it is run with grad students and supervising professors. I applied from a

recommendation from a couple of other Mom's in Tampa. There was a waiting list.

I am not sure how long it is now if any one else would like any other

information about or other resources in Tampa please feel free to pass on my

Email.

As I posted earlier I am affiliated with the early steps program and may have

been exposed to more resources then others.

Kim
