With over 20 years of experience as a speech-language pathologist, I have had the privilege of working with children and adults in a variety of settings, including early intervention, schools, home health, university clinics, specialty clinics, acute care, and outpatient rehabilitation. My diverse background, which includes academic research, managing speech therapy NIH studies, and opening two practices in two states now,  has given me a versatile skill set and a deep understanding of the unique needs of families in Appalachia. I believe that therapy should be bold, fun, and purposeful.  I'm dedicated to helping my patients reach their goals with professionalism and energy, and I love bringing laughter into our work. This is more than just a job for me; it's a mission to serve my community, and I would love the chance to help your family member reach their full potential.
