Sarah E. Van Winkle, M.S., CCC-SLP
My love for Speech Pathology began when I taught my little sister to say her “R” sound when I was nine years old. “Just growl like a lion”. It continued when I became friends with a Deaf classmate in middle school. Of course, I didn’t realize Speech Pathology was an actual profession until I had the opportunity to observe an SLP in a public school when I was in high school. After graduating with my undergraduate degree in Communication Disorders from the University of Northern Iowa, I completed my Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from California State University, Northridge. Not only did I study the English language; but, have completed courses in American Sign Language and French. I practiced in Colorado Springs public schools for six years and have been in private clinics since 2010. I love every moment of my profession as working to improve the communication of children brings so much joy to each day. When I am not helping your children with their speech and language, I am hanging with our cool kids Ella, Jude, and Eli. I also love the outdoors, especially hiking, and running around our beautiful town of Colorado Springs!
Angie Muri, M.S., CCC-SLP
I received my Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Nevada, Reno. I began my career in the pediatric private setting in Reno, NV, and then moved to Colorado Springs in 2013. I have a wide range of experience in the field. I have had the opportunity to work with children aged 18 months-21 years of age with a variety of communication delays including Developmental Delays, Feeding Disorders, Down Syndrome, Autism, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, Fluency Disorders, Social Pragmatic Language Disorders, and Articulation/Phonological Disorders. I have received specialized training in the Sequential-Oral-Sensory approach to feeding. I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and their families. I am passionate about childhood communication and helping children become effective communicators. I believe in the philosophy of teaching language through play and I am committed to developing treatment plans that help children succeed to their fullest potential. When I am not working, I like to spend time with my husband and our two children.
Kelsey Lamberson, M.A., CCC-SLP
I earned my Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Colorado, Boulder. I am a Colorado native, who recently returned to this wonderful state. I have had the opportunity to practice Speech Language-Pathology in a variety of settings, including a skilled nursing facility, outpatient rehabilitation clinic, school, and now private practice. I have received the ASHA ACE award for my dedication to continuing education. I am truly passionate about my field and helping others communicate! When I’m not working, I enjoy reading, hiking, traveling, and spending time with my family and friends.
Caleb Van Winkle, SLP-A
My journey as a Speech and Language Assistant began 13 years ago when I took a job as a Speech and Language Paraprofessional in a local school district.
With excellent guidance and advice from my supervising SLPs, I quickly became quite interested in the field. I attended CU Boulder for my S/L leveling courses and acquired my SLP-A license. It has been a joy working with kids of all ages and abilities.
Aside from work, I love ultimate frisbee, hiking mountains, kayaking, climbing, and pretty much anything the Colorado backcountry has to offer. I am a proud dad of three and have an ornery dog. Life is good. Go Hawks!
Susan Mueller- Office Administrator
I was born and raised in Lawrence, Kansas but now call Ankeny, Iowa
home with my husband (Ben) and two children (Jane & David). I graduated with my B.S. in Business Management and Leadership from Oklahoma Wesleyan University in 2013. After working in HR for about 5 years, I decided to make the switch to work and parent from home every day. In 2019, the opportunity to join PSLC on a remote, part-time basis was presented to me, and I couldn’t have been more excited to join the team.
I enjoy fair weather running, baking, bargain hunting, spending time with family, and sending mass emails (just kidding on that last one). Although I don’t live in Colorado, our family takes a trip to Estes Park every other year. I look forward to the breathtaking views, hiking, and that mountain air you all get to enjoy every day. 🙂
Fun fact! I’m married to Sarah’s brother which makes her my sister-in-law and Caleb my brother-in-law. Getting to work with family is the best.
Katie Davis, OTR/L
I received my Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from Colorado State University. Originally from San Diego, we recently moved here to be close to family. I have had the pleasure of working in pediatrics for my entire career within various settings including inpatient, outpatient, and private practice. Within these settings, I gained experience with a wide range of diagnoses and treatment strategies and had the opportunity to become certified in a few specific sensory processing and feeding selectivity approaches. I truly love my job and the unique opportunity it gives me to support children and their families in their daily activities. When I am not working, I love spending time with my family and exploring all the Colorado outdoors has to offer.
