Specialties
My Approach
I believe in taking a unique, whole-body approach to communication and oral-motor development. By combining my passion for therapeutic movement and restorative breathing with my extensive background as a swim instructor, I help clients connect their physical wellness to their speech and feeding goals. Through a creative and compassionate style, my ultimate goal is to help every client feel confident, supported, and inspired to grow.
My Background
I bring over 25 years of experience to my work with children and their families. Throughout my career, I have worn many hats—from Speech-Language Pathologist to swim instructor to educator—all of which have deepened my understanding of child development. I have dedicated my professional life to figuring out how children learn best and using that knowledge to empower them to thrive in all environments.
Education, Credentials, and Trainings
I am a California-licensed Speech-Language Pathologist and trained Myofunctional Therapist. I received my Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from California State University, Northridge. My clinical education bridges traditional speech and language development with specialized training in restorative breathing and oral-motor function, allowing me to provide comprehensive, function-based care for my patients.
