Mrs. Tina Fallis
Hello, my name is Tina Fallis. With over 25 years of experience working within the school system, as well as supporting children, youth, and adults with diverse communicative and developmental needs, I bring a strong foundation of practical, real-world insight to every session. Parents value the depth of school-based experience I offer, as it allows me to understand educational expectations, collaborate effectively with teams, and support communication skills that truly carry over into the classroom. As a mother of three, I bring both professional expertise and a warm, family-centered approach to my work.
I hold a BA in Psychology, a Diploma in Intervenor for Deafblind Persons, and certification as a Hypnotherapist. Throughout my career, I have worked alongside Speech-Language Pathologists and multidisciplinary teams in school boards, private agencies, homes, and community programs. My areas of experience include articulation and speech sound development, fluency, expressive/receptive language, social pragmatics, literacy, AAC, and supporting individuals with complex communication needs.
I have extensive experience working with neurodivergent children and youth — including autistic individuals, children with ADHD, sensory and developmental differences, dual diagnoses, and behavioural or emotional regulation challenges — as well as supporting young adults in developing communication, social understanding, and self-advocacy.
My background as an Intervenor for the Deafblind adds a unique and specialized dimension to my work. I am trained in American Sign Language (manual and tactile forms), braille, and visual–tactile communication systems, enabling me to adapt communication approaches to meet each individual’s needs.
I am also currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Psychotherapy to further support families through an integrated, holistic lens that addresses both communication and emotional wellbeing. I am passionate about empowering individuals with patience, creativity, and evidence-based practice to achieve their goals and build meaningful, confident connections, and help families navigate their communication journeys with hope, understanding, and confidence.
