MEET SAMANTHA

Sam brings a rich educational foundation and a genuine passion for supporting children and families to the VSLC team. Originally from Victoria, her journey began teaching English in China before returning home to B.C. to complete her Bachelor of Education and earn a Postgraduate Diploma in Special Education. Her hands-on experience as an elementary teacher inspired a deep fascination with communication, leading her to Scotland to complete her Master of Science in Speech and Language Therapy.

Outside of the clinic, Sam loves staying active, whether she’s playing tennis or exploring Vancouver Island’s beaches, trails, and parks with her toddler.

  • “My SLP and OT are both lovely, professional, highly qualified, punctual and they have a genuine interest in helping our son reach his full potential. It is always a pleasure to attend his sessions. The front desk staff are warm and helpful. Carla is energetic, organized, friendly and always available if we have questions.”

  • “They are professional, the office is clean and top-notch. We have been seeing Lucy for speech, because my son was missing some sounds. She has helped him come such a long ways with such ease. They learn a lot through games and fun ideas. She’s always so welcoming to him when we arrive and he really likes his sessions.”

  • “Carla helped us out to find funding where I didnt think I would qualify for. She answered all my questions and was very informative. My son loved working with Yvette. She would get on the floor and make learning fun. She had patience when he was having an off day. Definitely recommend this place.”
