About Me

Hi, I’m Cristy Davis, a licensed and certified speech/language pathologist with over twenty years of experience providing therapy across multiple settings. I received my bachelor’s degree from Minot State University in Minot, ND, and my master’s degree from the University of Wyoming in Laramie, WY.  I hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence through ASHA, and I am currently licensed in South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Iowa, and Wyoming.  I also recently received the Animal Assisted Intervention Specialist Certification through the Association of Animal-Assisted Intervention Professionals.

I believe that all children should have a way to communicate, whether verbally, through sign, or using  a total communication approach.  I have spent the past 22 years working with children in various schools across Western South Dakota.  I have also provided services in multiple states through teletherapy and home visits.  I love how teletherapy has allowed so many more families to access the services they need.

My goal is to help every child I work with communicate with the families that love them and eliminate the frustration that communication barriers cause.

I live in Rapid City with my husband, three children, and various animals that we have on our little hobby farm.
