Speech Therapy Services
Individual Speech and Language Therapy
I provide personalized speech and language therapy for children ages birth to12 to address communication, thinking and learning skills, such as listening comprehension, phonemic awareness, grammar, vocabulary, social language, articulation and executive function. Sessions are 30-60 minutes in duration and take place in homes, schools and daycares.
Getting Started
Starting speech therapy doesn't have to feel overwhelming. Here's what the process looks like:
Intake Call & Paperwork – We’ll start with a brief phone call to learn more about your child and your concerns, followed by intake paperwork so I can get a full picture of their development.
Evaluation Appointment – Your child will participate in an assessment tailored to their age and needs.
Collaborative Plan of Care – After the evaluation, we’ll discuss results and next steps together. I’ll share a proposed plan of care designed to support your child’s unique strengths and goals.
I’m here to walk you through every step with care, clarity, and a deep respect for your role as the expert on your child.
Parent Coaching and Consultations
Not sure if what you’re seeing is typical—or just want a little guidance on how to help? You don’t have to figure it out alone. No more Googling or waiting to see if they “grow out of it.”
This 1:1 virtual consult is designed for parents and caregivers who want expert support tailored to their child. Our discussion will focus directly on your questions and include research backed strategies to support communication. Whether you're wondering if your child needs an evaluation, want to learn about milestones or just want ideas to build language into your daily routines, this is a judgment-free space to ask questions, get answers, and feel more confident in your next steps.
*This is a parent coaching and consultation session and does not replace a formal speech and language evaluation.

Enrichment Classes
Expressive Explorers
Join us for Expressive Explorers, a joyful caregiver-and-me class designed to support early communication, sensory exploration, and social connection—all through the power of play.
Held at Giggles Play Space in Highwood, IL, this class welcomes children of all abilities ages 1 to 4 years. Each session is thoughtfully designed by a pediatric speech-language pathologist (that’s me!) to encourage language development in a natural, engaging environment.
Through songs, movement, sensory play, and shared routines, we create meaningful moments for little ones to explore, express, and connect—while giving caregivers simple tools to support communication at home.
What to expect:
✔ A warm, inclusive space that honors every child’s unique pace and style
✔ Hands-on activities that build early language and sensory skills
✔ Strategies you can use in your everyday routines
✔ Lots of laughter, play, and connection
Whether your child is just starting to use words or communicating in their own unique way, Expressive Explorers offers a playful path to building communication together.
