Confucius

I am a mother of three grown sons and four grandchildren.  My sons live in California, New York, and Minnesota, so I get to experience the best of both coasts, which has been fun.

My passions are walking, hiking, camping, canoeing, yoga, reading, movies and theatre.   The biggest love in my life is playing with my grandchildren and instilling memories into their lives.

When I was 10 years old, I would baby-sit my cousin who was mentally and physically disabled.  That’s where my passion to work with impaired children.

Through my years as a speech therapist, I have been truly blessed to work with wonderful children and their families.

I am excited to begin a new journey, working at an academy for high functioning 7^th – 10^th grade students that are on the autism spectrum.

I have worked with children for over seventeen years,
including ten years in the public school system.

I left the school system and began
providing out-patient therapy to children of all ages in a clinical setting.

Through my years of experience, I realized how important the family and the child’s home environment play in a child’s communication needs.  I knew that the parent’s were the key to open the doors to their child’s communication.  That’s when I decided to offer my services within the child’s home environment.

That is how Expressions in Motion began.

With Expressions in Motion, I am able to provide families with the support, tools and encouragement the child needs to meet their speech goals. 

I am also a licensed instructor of the Hanen Program, a family focused early intervention program.

I have extensive knowledge in all of the following

areas:

Autism Spectrum disorders

Childhood Apraxia

Stuttering in Children

Central Auditory Processing

Sensory Integration

Sign Language

Picture Exchange System (PECS)

Oral Motor

Adaptive Play

Relationship Development Intervention (RDI)
