Hi! I am a speech-language pathologist with over a decade of experience and a whole lot of heart for the kids and families I get to work with. I started this practice with a simple belief that feeding and communication aren't just clinical goals— they are fundamental human rights and every child deserves enough support to enjoy eating and conversing to the fullest extent of their ability.
I believe that good therapy starts with trust — everything else builds from there.
Outside of being an SLP, I'm a baker, a hiker, a snuggle-seeker, and a lover of rainy days. I'm also a personal chef to three kids of my own! In the chaos of home, we also navigate neurodiversity, articulation disorders, and selective eating daily— so I understand this dynamic from both sides of the feeding relationship.
I can't wait to meet you!

Every child is different. Every family is different.
Here's what stays consistent no matter who I'm working with:
Good therapy doesn't start with a goal — it starts with a relationship. I take time to earn trust with every child and family before anything else, because connection is the foundation that makes progress possible.
I bring the research. You bring the expertise on your child. Every plan we build together reflects both — because the best outcomes happen when science and family knowledge work as partners.
There is no one right way to feed, communicate, or parent. My job is to support your goals in a way that actually fits your real life — your values, your family structure, your child's unique needs.
