Licensed and certified speech-language pathologist serving families in East Providence, Rhode Island, and nearby Massachusetts. I earned my Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Loyola University Maryland and my Bachelor's degree from the University of South Florida. I am certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and am committed to providing evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming, connection-based therapy.

Every child is competent, unique, and capable of communication. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Instead, I meet each child where they are, tailoring therapy to their individual strengths, interests, and needs. I am especially passionate about supporting autistic children, gestalt language processors, and children who communicate using augmentative and alternative communication (AAC).

I have pursued extensive continuing education to ensure the care I provide reflects current best practices. My advanced training includes the Natural Language Acquisition (NLA) framework for gestalt language processors and the developmental framework ASD from the Inside Out. My areas of expertise include pediatric speech and language therapy, AAC evaluations and therapy, school contract services including evaluations, direct support, and staff training, as well as early intervention for children ages 0 to 3.

Therapy with me won't happen at a table. We'll move, explore, play, and connect. I believe children learn best through meaningful, engaging experiences that are rooted in their interests and strengths. Above all, I believe communication grows through connection, play, and joy. It is an honor to partner with families who celebrate their children for exactly who they are, and I look forward to supporting your family's communication journey.
