I’m a licensed speech-language pathologist who believes communication grows best through connection, play, and everyday experiences. My work centers on building relationships with children and their families and supporting communication in ways that feel natural and meaningful.
I provide play-based, family-centered speech-language services designed to fit into a child’s real life—at home, in the community, and within daily routines. I am licensed in the state of Illinois and am currently in the process of becoming credentialed as an Early Intervention provider. I value collaboration with caregivers and believe families are an essential part of the therapy process.
My work focuses on supporting language development through meaningful interaction, play, and shared experiences. Rather than isolating skills, I look at the whole child—their communication strengths, environment, relationships, and daily routines.
Parent coaching is a central part of my approach. I enjoy working closely with caregivers to provide practical strategies that support communication throughout everyday moments, helping skills grow beyond therapy sessions and into real life.
I am most passionate about supporting families in ways that feel collaborative and sustainable. I believe therapy should feel engaging and supportive—not overwhelming—and that children learn best when they feel safe, understood, and connected.
I strive to make therapy enjoyable and flexible, while empowering caregivers with tools and confidence to support communication during everyday routines. My goal is to partner with families in a way that feels supportive, clear, and responsive to their needs.
