About Me

I'm a Speech-Language Pathologist with over 11 years of experience working with school-aged children and adolescents. I earned my Master's degree in Communication Disorders from North Carolina Central University, and I'm also TEFL certified, which deepens my understanding of language learning across different contexts. My work focuses on articulation, language development, fluency, and pragmatic skills — the everyday communication abilities that help kids connect, learn, and grow. I provide therapy both in person and via teletherapy, so families have flexible options that fit their lives. Everything I do is grounded in evidence-based practice and shaped by a genuine respect for each child's background and culture. I believe that when a child feels understood and comfortable, real progress happens. My goal is always to make therapy feel like a safe, encouraging space — not just for the child, but for their family too. I'm licensed in Arizona, California, Florida, and New Mexico.

Why Clients Love Working With Me

Families tell me they appreciate how quickly their child warms up to me. I work hard to build real trust with each kid I see, and I tailor my approach to fit their unique personality and needs. I'm experienced in both in-person and teletherapy settings, so I know how to keep sessions engaging no matter the format. I bring a culturally sensitive lens to every interaction, and I'm committed to making sure every family feels seen, heard, and supported throughout the therapy journey.
