Nicole Cope, MS, CCC-SLP

I love working with adults and helping them regain their function.

Growing up we had a family friend who was a speech pathologist. I love working with adults and helping them regain their function. I have learned so much through the years from wise elder adults. They teach me as much as I teach them.
