I am a Speech and Language Therapist with a passion for our pediatric population. In our practice we believe that every child is different, and each assessment and treatment plan is focused on each individual family. Working together with family and the school is part of the journey and every step is taken together to best assist you and your little one to thrive.

 

We work with little ones of all ages, from as young as 6 months into adolescence.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Sociology and an Honors degree in Speech and Language Pathology. In addition, I have completed numerous professional development courses to broaden my knowledge and help me grow as a professional and reach a wider base.
