  • I provide pediatric speech-language pathology services for children ages 2–18, including:

    • Speech sound development

    • Language delays and language-based learning challenges

    • Autism and social communication

    • AAC and functional communication

    • Parent coaching and family support

    • Teletherapy and rural access services

    • Consultations and second opinions

    All services are individualized and grounded in evidence-based practice, with a strong focus on practical carryover into daily life.

  • The first step is to book a Parent Consultation.

    This initial meeting allows us to:

    • Discuss your child’s communication needs

    • Clarify concerns and priorities

    • Review any existing reports or therapy history

    • Determine whether ongoing therapy, consultation, or guidance is the best next step

    From there, we’ll decide together on a plan that fits your child and family.

  • I bring over fourteen years of experience working across clinical, school-based, and virtual settings, along with leadership and advocacy experience within the profession.

    What families often appreciate most is:

    • Clear explanations without jargon

    • A calm, thoughtful approach to complex needs

    • Practical strategies families can use immediately

    • Strong emphasis on parent involvement and carryover

    • Experience navigating systems, funding, and access to care

    I don’t just work with children—I support the people and environments around them.

  • Fees vary depending on the type of service provided (consultation, therapy, or review).

    I am transparent about fees and will discuss costs during the initial Parent Consultation so families can make informed decisions. Many families are able to use private funding or disability supports toward services, and documentation for reimbursement can be provided when applicable.

  • Yes. I have extensive experience providing effective speech-language services through teletherapy.

    Virtual services are ideal for:

    • Rural or remote families

    • Busy schedules

    • Children who engage well with online formats

    • Families seeking consistent access to experienced care

    Tele-therapy is delivered securely and follows the same clinical standards as in-person services.

  • Parent involvement is strongly encouraged and often essential for meaningful progress.

    Depending on your child’s needs, this may include:

    • Observing sessions

    • Participating in coaching

    • Practicing strategies between sessions

    My goal is to support families in feeling confident and capable, not overwhelmed.

  • Every child is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all timeline.

    Progress depends on factors such as:

    • The child’s individual profile

    • Goals and priorities

    • Consistency and carryover at home

    • Developmental readiness

    I focus on setting clear goals and regularly reviewing progress so expectations remain realistic and transparent.

  • That’s exactly what a Parent Consultation is for.

    Some families need reassurance, guidance, or a plan—rather than ongoing therapy. I’m happy to help clarify options and recommend next steps, even if that means monitoring or referring elsewhere.
