So glad you’re here! My mission is to provide effective and joyful speech therapy that improves each child’s communication in a meaningful way. I consider my practice holistic because I am focused on the interaction of the whole system and how the child’s communication is tied to their brain/body/speech connection rather than analysis or separation of those parts. I feel blessed to work with these precious little ones in a fun and effective way. My aim is that they gladly look forward to speech with me as much as I do them!
