About Debby M Torres

About Debby:

Debby holds a Bachelor of Science (1993) and a Master of Science (1995) degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology from  West Virginia   University  in Morgantown, WV.  She is a licensed speech-language pathologist in North Carolina and holds the certificate of clinical competence (CCC) from the  American Speech and Hearing Association (ASHA).  Debby is also a certified  Vital-Stim provider.

Debby has experience in a variety of settings and ages to include home health, school setting, skilled nursing facilities and hospitals, besides out-patient clinics.  She has also had the opportunity to work with the Smart Start grant and educating both parents and healthcare / daycare providers.  This experience has helped support her philosophy that it is important to look at the child as a whole rather than only one discipline.

Debby has moved around a lot since getting married to an active duty soldier 6 years ago to include living in Puerto Rico for over 3 years which helped to improve her Spanish speaking skills.  In her time off she enjoys her two cats, reading, cooking and spending time with her husband.
