About Us

The Wilkenfeld Speech, Language, and Learning Center was established in 1999 by two sisters, Saundra and Joyce Wilkenfeld, both of whom are native Houstonians. The center was created with a mission to provide clients with the highest-quality care in a comfortable, home-like setting. Services are provided at the center, in schools and via telecommunication.

Partners

Saundra and Joyce Wilkenfeld are speech language pathologists with over 30 years of experience. They received their undergraduate degrees at the University of Texas. Saundra pursued her graduate education at the University of Washington and Joyce at the University of Arizona. They have studied extensively at the Neuhaus Education Center, dedicated to the promotion of scientifically based reading instruction. Earlier in her career, Saundra practiced at Seattle Children’s Hospital and Texas Children’s Hospital, and was a clinical instructor in the Division of Otorhinolaryngology and Communicative Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine. Joyce worked in private practice while serving on the Board of the Houston Branch of the International Dyslexia Association.
