OWNER & OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST

Hi there, I’m Ms. Bri! I am a licensed and board-certified Occupational Therapist in the state of Pennsylvania and a graduate from Misericordia University as a Doctor of Occupational Therapy. I also hold a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy degree and a Bachelor in Health Sciences degree. My entire career has centered around pediatrics with experience in multiple settings including early intervention, school-based and outpatient. I focus on being neurodiversity affirming and utilize multi-sensory and play-based approaches to help ensure that your child enjoys therapy! I also specialize in feeding therapy- for both picky eating and the oral motor aspects of eating. As someone who had their own (significant) feeding difficulties growing up, I not only understand feeding from a therapy perspective, but from a child’s viewpoint as well.

Aside from feeding, I have extensive experience working with children who have a variety of diagnoses including developmental delay, genetic disorders, cerebral palsy, visual motor/perceptual issues, blindness, deaf or hard of hearing, traumatic brain injury, language-based learning disabilities, ADD/ADHD, sensory processing disorder, autism spectrum disorder, dysgraphia, amputations, oral motor difficulties and musculoskeletal disorders.

Fun facts: Outside of work, you can find me at a bowling alley, baking or at home with my husband, son and cat. I am a USBC certified youth bowling coach and have been for over 10 years. Surprise, I am also the owner of True To You Therapy!

SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGIST

Hi! My name is Karleigh Lukasik, M.S., CCC-SLP, a NEPA native speech-language pathologist serving our local community. I completed my undergraduate career in Communication Sciences and Disorders with a minor in Human Development and Family Studies at The Pennsylvania State University, and continued my education at East Stroudsburg University to complete my Master’s degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders.

I began my SLP journey in an outpatient clinic, where I provided services to a range of ages including birth through geriatrics. Since my starting point, I have also worked as an Early Interventionist in Wayne, Pike, and Luzerne counties, as well as our PA school system. From working within multiple settings, I have treated a variety of communication, voice, and swallow disorders, including special populations such as Autism, developmental disabilities, and Parkinson’s.

I love what I do and I understand the impact communication skills have on a person, not only as a clinician, but as a family member to those with developmental delays and disabilities. Im happy to help those within our community reach their fullest potential!!

In my 10+ years practicing as an SLP, I have worked with both children and adults in outpatient clinics, skilled nursing facilities, early intervention, and hospitals.

SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGIST

Hi there, I’m Miss Ashley, M.S., CCC-SLP. I am a Honesdale native and love contributing to the community that helped shape who I am today. I received my BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders from West Chester University and my MS in Speech-Language Pathology from Bloomsburg University. I have been an SLP for about 8 years and have spent that time working solely in pediatrics, primarily with the preschool population. I am extremely passionate about early language and AAC and I like to utilize a total communication approach in therapy to provide kiddos with multiple ways of expressing themselves. I am a big believer in child-led play therapy and creating a safe space for neurodivergent kiddos to feel seen and accepted.

When I’m not working on communication, you can find me at home with my fiancé and two cats reading, gardening, running, or watching the Phillies. I’m also often traveling, in a book or record store, or listening to live music.
