About my practice:
My therapy services are conveniently provided in the home and in community settings where kids live, learn, and play, including private schools, preschools, daycare centers, backyards, playgrounds, and libraries. My service area is from Northeast Broward to Southeast Palm Beach County, Florida.
In the natural environment, teamwork between therapists, caregivers and teachers means goals that reflect the child's most pressing communication needs. By working together, carryover strategies can be readily embedded into everyday learning opportunities, which results in improved generalization of new skills.

About Me:In nearly 25 years as a speech-language pathologist, I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of kids learn to communicate more effectively. My background spans a wide range of pediatric settings, from early intervention and private practice to neonatal ICU and outpatient hospital clinics. I bring a wealth of experience with pediatric diagnoses that include articulation disorders, language impairments, late talking, autism, prematurity, feeding disorders, apraxia, and syndrome-based disorders.
I'm supportive and approachable, knowledgeable, and up-to-date on emerging research, and I firmly believe effective therapy should also be fun. Working with kids is my passion and joy, and it's a privilege to devote myself to work I care deeply about. I love what I do! |
