Panika Palmer
Panika Palmer is a Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with extensive experience in medical settings, including the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). There, she supported parents in learning to feed their most vulnerable babies. In 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic, Panika opened her private practice to address the lack of family support. She quickly discovered her passion for working closely with families in their homes and clinic, where she continues to provide compassionate, individualized care.
Panika’s dedication to feeding and speech therapy grew from her own experience as a mother. When her oldest son was born under traumatic circumstances and required NICU care, she personally faced the exhaustion, stress, and isolation of early feeding challenges. These experiences fueled her commitment to help other families find the support, confidence, and connection they deserve.
In addition to feeding and lactation support, Panika provides speech therapy services for children with communication and language delays, articulation challenges, and oral motor difficulties. She believes in a family-centered approach that empowers parents with tools and strategies to support their child’s growth every step of the way.
Whether your child needs help with feeding, speech, or both, we’re excited to walk alongside you on this journey. Together, we’ll build the foundation for confident communication, safe feeding, and brighter futures.
