Building Connections.
Growing Communication.
Rooted Connections Therapy is a pediatric Speech-Language Pathology practice serving families in the Edmonton area.
Our approach is grounded in a simple belief: children develop communication through relationships, meaningful experiences, and opportunities to connect with the people around them.
We provide individualized, play-based speech-language therapy designed around each child's strengths, interests, communication needs, and family goals.

Hi! I’m Sabreena.
​
I’m a neuroaffirming Speech-Language Pathologist who values each child’s unique way of communicating, learning, and experiencing the world. I recognize that communication can look different for every child.
My goal is to foster an environment where children feel understood, valued, and empowered to communicate in ways that are authentic to them.
Experience Rooted in Knowledge & Connection
My work is grounded in evidence-based practice, ongoing learning, and years of experience supporting children with a wide range of communication needs. I have extensive experience working with autistic children and children with diverse developmental and communication profiles. I specialize in:
Autism & Neurodiversity
Supporting neurodivergent children by valuing their unique ways of processing and interacting with the world.
Speech & Language
Developing foundational language skills through play and meaningful interaction.
AAC & Functional Communication
Helping children access tools and strategies to express themselves effectively in their daily lives.

Why Rooted Connections?
The name Rooted Connections reflects the foundation of my approach.
Strong roots provide stability and support growth. In much the same way, meaningful relationships and connection create a foundation for communication to grow.
Therapy is not simply about producing sounds or saying more words. It is about helping children communicate their wants, needs, ideas, emotions, and personalities while feeling understood and supported.
Beyond the Therapy Room
When I'm not working with families, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my daughters, travelling, and reading.
These experiences continue to remind me how much children learn through curiosity, relationships, exploration, and everyday experiences.
