Our Owner

Emily Watkins graduated from LSU Health Shreveport with a Master’s degree in Communication Disorders. She is a nationally certified Speech-Language Pathologist who has been practicing since 2014.

Emily used to work with families through Louisiana’s EarlySteps program. After noticing that many families were struggling to get their children the therapy services they needed, Emily founded Pediatric Therapy Partners in 2018 to address the needs of the Northeast Louisiana community.

She started the clinic with just herself. In no time at all, Pediatric Therapy Partners expanded to two clinics with 24 therapists and continues to grow every day!
