Chrissy Bruce is an American speech therapist who works with English-speaking children in Barcelona. I asked her some questions about what she does and because I know that a lot of you may be interested in this topic, I thought I'd share her answers here with you.
1. What is your background?
I am from the US (Arizona), and have lived in Barcelona for about 15 years. I came to teach English back in 1994 and fell in love with Barcelona. I did go back to the States from 1996-2000 for graduate school and to complete a fellowship as a bilingual speech-language pathologist in Washington, D.C., but ever since the first day I arrived in Barcelona, I have known this was my home. I am now married to a Catalan and have a trilingual four-year-old. I have been a licensed speech-language pathologist for 12 years.
2. How did you start working as a speech therapist in Barcelona?
I coordinated the special needs learning program at the American School of Barcelona for many years before opening my private practice in 2006. I now work very closely with many of the international schools in Barcelona and have the pleasure of working with multilingual children throughout Barcelona. I am absolutely passionate about what I do.
