Other Professional Practice / Service Information
I approach therapy from a holistic perspective, and believe that each person is unique and deserving of an evidence-based therapy program that best fits their needs and goals. I have experience supporting my clients in their speech, language, and cognitive-communication goals, including building confidence in communication and social language. I seek to build trust with my clients (and/or their loved ones) in order to make this journey through therapy feel enjoyable, safe, and effective.
