Bio
After graduating with my teaching degree in elementary and special education, I worked in a private class dedicated to autistic children/children with autism. I had the opportunity to work with an amazing SLP and so my decision to go back to school was born.
I worked as middle and high school teacher, serving oppositional defiant, behavioral disorder, and emotionally disturbed students, as I obtained my masters. I have worked in the schools and with special needs populations since 2000.
My passion lies working with children of all ages. I have a fondness for children with disabilities; neurodivergent/autistic, down syndrome, intellectual disability, oppositional defiant.
I am an ASHA certified Speech Language Pathologist, licensed in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University in 2015 and have been practicing in the school setting (teletherapy included) and early intervention ever since. I have taken American Sign Language I and implement a multimodality form of communication. I believe in patient centered care. Every individual learns and makes progress in their own unique way, so I provide services to meet the needs of each individual child, treating the whole person. I work with parents and provide strategies to use at home and other environments to generalize skills across all areas. Often with younger children, a play-based approach is used, making a more natural connection. I have worked closely with occupational therapists and one day, I dream to have a sensory gym where speech services can be provided. In my spare time, you will find me with my son doing craft activities, reading, or outside taking a walk, at the park, or at the beach in the summer.
