About Me

I am an RCI-certified Speech Language Pathologist and Audiologist with over five years of experience working with children with diverse communication needs. I specialize in providing early intervention services that focus on meaningful communication and holistic child development. My therapeutic philosophy is rooted in a play-centered and evidence-based approach ensuring that every child's journey to communication is joyful, engaging, and highly effective.

Why I Became a Speech and Language Pathologist

I chose this field because I believe every child deserves a voice and the opportunity to express themselves confidently. Seeing children grow, communicate, and overcome barriers inspired me to pursue a career where I can make a direct, positive impact on their development and quality of life.

Clinical Approach

My clinical approach is rooted in early intervention, evidence-based strategies, and play-centered learning. My core approach is the Play-Centered and Family-Guided Model. I focus on building functional communication that fits naturally into a child’s daily life. Every therapy plan is personalized, goal-oriented, and designed to be engaging, meaningful, and developmentally appropriate.

My Thoughts on Therapy

Therapy is not just about correcting speech—it’s about empowering children to connect, express, and participate confidently in their world. I believe that therapy should never feel like work to a child; it should feel like connection and fun. I believe in creating a positive, supportive environment where learning feels natural, joyful, and motivating. Collaboration with families is at the heart of my practice, ensuring progress continues beyond the therapy room. The goal is always to move beyond the clinic, enabling meaningful, functional communication that allows the child to thrive in their family and community.
