Nurturing growth and happiness for whole humans, whether big and small.
Building on 14 years of speech therapy with countless children and families, and seeing new opportunities to serve this community with a focus on finding joy and strength in everyday moments, I am excited to offer high-quality support for overall development, communication skills, social-emotional regulation, relationship-building, coping strategies, and the many other joys and challenges of parenting any child.
When making a meaningful experience that both challenges and supports your child, I need to learn from you and keep you in the driver's seat of our sessions... because you are the #1 expert, friend, and teacher for your child! Activities are frequently adjusted during therapy sessions to make the most of each child's and family's strengths, relationships, routines, sensory preferences, and top interests. I consider myself lucky to meet children in their family homes, community locations, or virtually (no need for your family to travel!).
I also offer resources, training, and coaching/consultations as another way to benefit families who are facing limited availability of services, or those wanting to be more actively engaged in working with their own children. I also look forward to creating a stronger sense of community for both kids and parents, through inclusive social opportunities at events and small group outings.
To talk with me about how your family could add daily moments of joy that guide growth and happiness, please request an appointment for a free virtual consultation or new client special when you are ready!
