As an ASHA-certified and California-licensed speech-language pathologist, I'm dedicated to helping your child develop strong communication skills through effective treatment of speech sound disorders and early language development. I strive to provide the highest quality of care and a positive, joyful experience for your child and family. Together, we can empower your child with the tools they need to communicate with confidence and achieve their full potential.

Step Two

Evaluation

​

We'll conduct an assessment to evaluate your child's strengths and weaknesses, and discuss your family goals to determine if therapy is needed. If your child has a current evaluation report, we may use it as a starting point for services.
