I have over a decade of experience working with children and as a speech language pathologist since earning my master's degree in speech pathology in 2012. I began my career as an itinerant provider working with children birth-5 in preschools and within their home environments. I have a BA in Psychology, a BS and MS in Communication Science & Disorders. I am currently licensed to provide therapy in Tennessee. I also hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology required by the ASHA and I have the ability to adhere to the ASHA Code of Ethics. It has been a long ambition of mine to relocate permanently to a new state and my husband’s job has provided us with this new and exciting experience, first in 2017 in Austin, TX and then again in 2021 in Chattanooga, TN. I worked as a Speech Language Pathologist at an urban Elementary and Middle school in NY, as a tele-therapist and in a private practice in Austin, TX, and in 2020 I opened my open private practice where I saw kiddos in my home office. After having baby number 2, I found it difficult to go back to work and leave my babies, so I've started an Instagram page where I find humor in our profession while also sharing information for families that might want to research on their own what's going on with their little ones. I find this career to be a very rewarding one and I have a real desire to help students with various delays and backgrounds. My experience has taught me that students with speech and language impairments have a difficult time keeping up with other students, but this type of disability also affects them in a very emotional way. I have the skills to help children of all ages deal with the emotional aspect by helping them meet their developmental and educational goals.
