This complimentary 15-20 minute consultation gives us a chance to connect, discuss concerns, and explore goals.

You’ll share what you’re noticing, and I’ll offer initial impressions along with recommendations for next steps—whether that’s an evaluation, therapy, coaching, helpful resources, or IEP advocacy.

My goal is for you to feel supported, informed, and confident as we decide together what path fits best for you and your family.

Flexible, effective therapy for children, teens, and adults — delivered from the comfort of home.

Virtual sessions make high-quality speech and cognitive-communication support easy and accessible. Whether you’re working on speech clarity, expressive or receptive language, social communication, or cognitive skills like memory, attention, and organization, virtual therapy provides an engaging and highly personalized experience for many clients.

Virtual therapy is especially helpful for teens, college students, and adults who benefit from digital tools, structured sessions, and the convenience of remote access. Many cognitive strategies—like planning systems, digital calendars, note-taking tools, and organization routines—translate seamlessly to an online setting.

Best for:

• Children and teens who can engage well online

• Adults seeking flexible, private sessions

• Individuals working on organization, planning, memory strategies, or communication skills who prefer remote learning

• Busy families or professionals wanting therapy without travel

What to expect:

• Live, face-to-face coaching and instruction

• Interactive activities tailored to age and needs

• Speech and language support grounded in functional communication

• Cognitive strategies using real digital tools (planners, calendars, notes apps, etc.)

• Clear recommendations, collaboration, and age-appropriate materials

Note: For clients who benefit from hands-on guidance, sensory supports, or real-time environmental structure, in-home sessions may be a better fit.

Virtual therapy offers meaningful, convenient support for many individuals across all ages and goals.

Warm, personalized therapy delivered directly in your home — for children, teens, and adults.

Whether the goal is improving speech clarity, strengthening expressive/receptive language, supporting social communication, or addressing cognitive skills like attention, memory, and problem-solving, in-home therapy allows strategies to be practiced in the real spaces where daily life happens.

Best for:

Designed to empower parents and caregivers to confidently navigate the special education process. Whether you’re preparing for your first IEP, feeling overwhelmed by reports and timelines, or unsure how to advocate for appropriate supports, I’m here to help you understand your child’s rights and options every step of the way.

As a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist, I provide clear, compassionate guidance to help families:

• Understand their rights, timelines, and expectations

• Understand evaluations, assessment results, and eligibility

• Prepare for IEP meetings with confidence and clarity

Support, clarity, and practical strategies for parents navigating communication, learning, and development.

Parent coaching provides individualized guidance for caregivers who want tools, understanding, and confidence when supporting their child’s communication, behavior, or learning needs. Sessions focus on helping parents make sense of challenges, learn effective strategies, and apply them consistently in daily life.

Coaching may include support with speech and language development, executive functioning, social communication, emotional regulation, school-related concerns, and navigating services or next steps. Rather than working directly with the child, parent coaching centers the adult—so strategies can be carried over naturally at home, school, and in everyday routines.

Parent coaching is especially helpful for:

• Parents who want guidance but aren’t sure therapy is the right fit yet

• Families waiting for evaluations or services

• Caregivers seeking tools to support communication, organization, or behavior at home

• Parents who want to better understand their child’s needs and advocate confidently

What to expect:

• Collaborative, judgment-free conversations

• Clear, actionable strategies tailored to your family

• Education around communication, learning, and development

• Practical tools that fit real life—not just theory

• Support with decision-making, planning next steps, and advocacy

Parent coaching empowers caregivers with knowledge and strategies that create meaningful change beyond the session.

In-Home and Virtual

Early Intervention sessions support your child’s earliest communication milestones through play-based learning and caregiver coaching, honoring the belief that connection is the foundation of communication.

Together, we focus on helping your little one build the core skills that support language development — shared attention, imitation, turn-taking, and joyful back-and-forth interaction.

Support may include early language enrichment, routines-based communication strategies for everyday moments, and caregiver guidance to help you feel confident supporting development at home.

Sessions are collaborative and supportive, with an emphasis on empowering caregivers to feel confident, capable, and attuned to their child’s communication growth from the very beginning.

A clear, supportive starting point for understanding speech, language, and cognitive strengths, as well as areas for growth, across all ages.

Evaluations are the first step in clinically identifying your unique needs and creating a personalized plan for therapy. Whether you’re seeking clarity for a child, teen, or adult, I provide comprehensive assessments that explore speech, language, social communication, and cognitive-communication skills such as memory, attention, processing, and executive functioning.

Each evaluation is tailored to the individual — considering age, developmental history, daily routines, concerns, and personal goals. My approach is compassionate, thorough, and grounded in functional, real-life communication.

What an evaluation may include:

• A detailed case history and interview

• Standardized or informal assessments

• Language, articulation, fluency, or voice measures

• Memory, attention, processing, or problem-solving tasks

• Functional, real-life observations

• Collaboration with caregivers or family when appropriate

• Clear written recommendations and next steps

Best for:

• Families seeking clarity about their child’s communication or developmental needs

• Teens and young adults experiencing academic, organizational, or social communication challenges

• Adults experiencing changes in speech or cognitive skills, or wanting tools to support daily functioning through all chapters of life

• Anyone wanting a deeper understanding of their communication strengths and areas of growth

Evaluations provide the foundation for meaningful, individualized support — helping you move forward with confidence, clarity, and a plan that truly fits your life.
