Circle Creek Therapy, which offers services to children and adults in a variety of areas, welcomes the public to its “Milk and Cookies” open house on Saturday, Nov. 21.

The open house is from 5 to 7 p.m. at the clinic, 204 Auburn Ave.

“There is an immense need in our area for speech and language services,” said Courtni Doherty, MS, CCC-SLP, a speech-language pathologist and owner of the clinic. “Many of the facilities in our area have long waiting lists, and there are limited options available for adult patients. I decided to take the plunge and open a new clinic in Auburn.

“I am excited to meet the community, and I am hoping that people are curious enough to stop by during the open house and find out what Circle Creek Therapy is all about.”

The clinic offers services to children and adults in a variety of areas, including cognitive therapy, articulation and language therapy, stuttering and accent modification.

Circle Creek Therapy is accepting new patients and serves Auburn, Federal Way, Kent and other surrounding communities. The center also offers animal-assisted therapy sessions with Doherty’s therapy dog.
