Focused, functional, and effective speech therapy, for a lifetime of connection

Welcome, I’m so excited to have the opportunity to work together! I understand just how difficult it can be to choose the right speech therapist to help you or your loved one. My clients know they’ve made the right choice with Saint Pete Speech Therapy, because I’ve centered my practice around three core beliefs:

• Speech therapy should be PURPOSEFUL. Each client’s treatment plan should be personalized, and goals should be focused on functional outcomes.

• Clients and their families should be INFORMED. The reasons why we’ve developed your goals, selected therapy activities, and assigned home program activities should be clearly and regularly reviewed.

• Speech therapy should make our clients and their families feel EMPOWERED. Our clients learn to identify and maximize their communication strengths, and feel confident and supported while we develop skills in their areas of need.

I help my clients and their families learn the how and why of their speech disorder, and provide personalized, functional interventions that improve the lives of my clients through better communication. I believe this is the most critical component of an effective therapy program: only when we understand the problem, are we able to effectively solve it.

In my years of experience across multiple settings including the John Hopkins University Health System, regional hospitals, public schools, and outpatient clinics, I’ve gained a wealth of experience of ways to teach and rehabilitate speech and language skills.

I’m confident that at Saint Pete Speech Therapy, you’ll find solutions for your speech therapy needs. If you’re ready to being your journey towards confident and empowered communication, click below to get started!
