As an educator and clinician specializing in executive function coaching, dyslexia, auditory processing, social  communication, and other language-based learning disabilities, I have dedicated my clinical teaching  career to advancing communication development in the students I serve.

In my work in both private  practice and school settings providing 1:1, small group, and class-wide intervention and assessments and  managing the learning plans of students in kindergarten through 12th grade, I see rapid progress by  individualizing the instruction to use students’ strengths and develop their weaker-by-comparison language skills.

As a clinically trained speech pathologist and former consultant for Lindamood-Bell  Learning processes, I’m well-versed in multi-sensory, explicit approaches for remediating written  language disorders. With a PhD from Florida State University and the Florida Center for Reading  Research, I’ve been trained by the authors of, and grounded in, the research that we now call the science  of reading.

With over 100 hours of training in executive function development, I’m committed to helping each student excel in learning, recover their confidence, and discover their innate abilities as competent learners and communicators.
