Alex Niels

SLPA, Speech-Language Pathology Assistant 

My name is Alexander Niels, also known as Mr. Alex. I’m originally from Baltimore, Maryland, and have lived in Colorado for over 10 years. I currently reside in Fort Collins with my wife of 10 years, along with our cat and turtle. I earned my bachelors degree in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology from the University of Northern Colorado. 

​I bring over 20 years of experience working with children (ages 1–18) and adults in various roles, including Respite Care Worker, Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), Paraprofessional (special needs, behavioral, and significant needs), Substitute Teacher (Pre-K through 5th grade across general education, PE, literacy, and library settings), Speech Teacher (Kindergarten through 8th grade), and Swim Coach/Instructor. I also have experience using American Sign Language (ASL).

I just wanted to let you know about a special moment with my daughter last night. She was struggling with her “r’s” and he really helped her out. Last night she said “drip” very nicely in conversation and I complimented her. She said “I really miss Justin. He was so nice and really helped me.”

I have a caregiver who has been dealing with her husband's progressive aphasia and dementia for some time. They have been to several clinicians over the past couple of years that has resulted in very little help. This past week they saw Allie at your Greeley clinic and left feeling like someone understood the diagnosis and gave the caregiver and her husband helpful strategies and tips. This caregiver went from being emotionally distraught two weeks ago to now feeling encouraged and hopeful.

I can’t express enough how much Roxanne has helped me understand and teach my little one. Her speech has progressed so much from the beginning. Not only does Roxanne speak English but Spanish as well! In our household, Spanish is our main language. It’s amazing that she can help us in both languages! Every time we see Roxanne she always has the best attitude and a smile on her face.
