Danielle Busayong

About Me

Dani received her Master's Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of British Columbia. She has experience working with a diverse set of clients and needs, including Autism, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, Developmental Language Disorders, Speech Sound Disorders, and Alternative and Augmentative communication (AAC). 
 

Dani is RASP certified and has additional training with parent coaching for families with Autistic children through the PLAY Project. 

Dani believes building a connection always comes first in therapy, and loves creating long-lasting connections with the children and families she works with. She advocates for the use of multiple, intersecting approaches to therapy, including a neurodiversity-affirming, culturally responsive, play-based, and family-centered lens. She works with families to integrate cultural considerations into individualized support that best supports their goals and daily life. 

Dani is passionate about advocacy, with a focus on Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Access (IDEA) in healthcare. As a neurodivergent clinician herself, she champions acceptance and appreciation of neurodiversity.
