Welcome to The Talk Spot
The Talk Spot offers talking tips and speech-language strategies for babies, toddlers, and school-aged children, with an emphasis on parent-coaching and empowerment. I and my team are proud supporters of play-based learning and passionate advocates for children of all abilities.
With over 10 years’ experience working with children, I have a knack for disguising therapy as play and our whole team uses this foundational approach. At The Talk Spot we strive to make speech and language knowledge accessible to families and believe everyone should be able to access therapy conveniently.
We absolutely LOVE what we do and are devoted to serve our clients with integrity and enthusiasm as we support their speech and language development. The most rewarding aspect of our job is when children feel proud of their communication accomplishments and the family grows confidence in helping their child. Your goals are important to us. We will work collaboratively to come up with a treatment plan that is tailored to you.
Thanks for being here, we can’t wait to work with you!

Hi! My name is Lauren MacAulay: a speech-language pathologist (SLP) with a passion for people.
I believe that communication is what connects us to the people around us, and is a fundamental right for everyone. With a certificate in American Sign Language, I am a proponent of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) as well as speech.
The best part of my job is getting to know my clients and their families! I love to have fun in my sessions and tailor my goals and activities to each unique individual. I look forward to helping your family achieve your speech, language, and communication goals.

Hello! My name is Karolina and I am a speech-language pathologist (SLP) with a Master of Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders from Minot State University.
Born in Poland and raised in Calgary, I had the opportunity to appreciate language from an early age learning both Polish and English. I continued to grow a passion in communication learning and appreciating all modalities of communication, such as, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), visuals, gestures, sign language, body language, verbal expression, writing, texting, etc. Working collaboratively with families and sharing strategies to help their communication goals drives my determination to support kiddos and their families.
I look forward to meeting, connecting, and supporting families in Alberta!
