About
She specializes in children who stutter, helping them to develop fluent speech and feel proud of themselves as capable communicators. Briggs & Associates | Speech and Language Therapy offers services that include prevention, identification, evaluation, treatment, and rehabilitation. Margaret's approach is influenced by Michelle Garcia Winner's Social Thinking work and the UCLA PEERS programs. She helps her clients improve in their ability to think about others in a wide variety of social situations and master the confusing world of 'being social.' Her practice also focuses on reading, accurately interpreting, and appropriately responding to non-verbal social cues. Briggs & Associates is located in Pasadena, CA, and serves children and young adults with social communication challenges, stuttering, and formulation difficulties. Margaret's goal is to create a safe place for her clients to explore the emotional component of stuttering while also adopting strategies to enhance their fluency.
