About ChitChat Therapies
Thanks for visiting ChitChat Therapies! I'm Angie Wuelling, owner and bilingual certified speech-language pathologist. Due to my passion for improving kids’ communication skills, I launched ChitChat Therapies to deliver evidenced-based, engaging, and compassionate services. At our new Arvada, CO office, we serve families who live in Arvada, Westminster, Golden, Lakewood, Boulder, and Denver. We also provide telehealth services, or online speech therapy, throughout Colorado.
My journey to becoming a speech therapist hasn’t been typical. After earning my undergraduate degree in communications from Truman State University in Kirksville, MO, I worked as the development director of a nonprofit that serves children with delays and disabilities. I met numerous families who shared how therapy services completely transformed their kids’ lives. The children’s—and their loved ones’—strength, bravery, and positivity inspired me. They opened my eyes to the abilities that all children have.
A few years later, I decided that I wanted to be the person teaching children to talk (and make eye contact, follow directions, answer questions, develop friendships, and speak clearly!) Since graduating with my Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Colorado—Boulder, I have worked with children and adults in home healthcare, public schools, private daycares and preschools, rehabilitation centers, skilled nursing facilities, and through telepractice (online services).
Although I work with children of all ages, I have specialized in treating kids from 2- to 10-years old. “My kiddos” have given me many special moments. One of my favorites was when a mom told me that her kindergartener was able to have a phone conversation with his grandpa. The latter said that it was the first time he could understand his grandson on the phone.
With my bilingualism and knowledge of second language acquisition, I also partner with school districts to evaluate bilingual students’ communication skills. I love the challenge of discerning whether a student is merely learning English, or presents with a delay or disorder that impacts all languages.
At ChitChat Therapies, we don’t just improve communication skills—we transform lives, one session at a time. To learn more, read about our services, check out our testimonials, and contact us with any questions or concerns. We look forward to hearing from you!
