My Approach
In my sessions, I take a child-led approach to therapy and prioritize establishing meaningful connections with my clients so they feel safe, comfortable, and motivated to learn. I meet children where they are at and honor their current communication abilities to support them as we develop new skills. For young children, this should look like play! Children should be *excited* for speech therapy! For older children, I incorporate their interests in our therapy sessions and target skills in natural contexts whenever possible.
Regardless of a child's age or current communication abilities, one of my primary goals is always to help them develop confidence in their communication so they can effectively advocate for themselves and their needs. I believe in a team approach and aim to empower caregivers to be an active part of their child’s therapy team.

Real Concerns.
Your child may be struggling to communicate, and you're not sure why or what to do next.
Maybe you're worried that they aren’t talking yet.
Maybe they speak, but other people can't understand them. You often have to "translate" for them.
Maybe your gut is telling you that something isn't quite right, even if other people have told you to "wait and see" or "they'll talk when they're ready."
