My Approach

As a Speech Pathologist, my approach is centered on the holistic development of the child. I firmly believe that to effectively address speech and language challenges, it is crucial to also focus on the child's social and emotional well-being. I use play-based therapy as a means of creating an enjoyable and engaging environment for children to learn and grow. My aim is to empower children to express themselves confidently and effectively in their daily interactions.

​

I also incorporate advanced techniques, such as the Social Thinking Program and the Zones of Regulation, to help children understand and interpret social cues, improve their emotional regulation, and develop their social communication skills. These cutting-edge approaches have been proven effective in helping children with autism and other social-emotional challenges.

​

Additionally, I use a combination of evidence-based methods and techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and language therapy to address the child's individual needs and goals. For example, for children who struggle with vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension, I use language therapy to improve their language skills.

​

My ultimate goal as a Speech Pathologist is to empower children to reach their full potential in communication and social interactions. I strive to create a supportive and welcoming environment where children can feel safe to express themselves and learn the skills they need to navigate the social and emotional challenges of life. I am dedicated to providing the highest standard of care and utilizing the most current and effective techniques in my practice to help children achieve their goals.
