CLINICAL BACKGROUND AND MY APPROACH TO CARE

I believe in providing individualized, neuro-affirming care that is grounded in understanding the unique needs and strengths of each person. My approach emphasizes collaboration with families, caregivers, and multidisciplinary teams to create tailored therapeutic solutions that enhance independence and quality of life.

I specialize in assistive technology, using tools to improve communication, provide adaptable educational materials, and offer alternative access methods to the environment. This includes working with both children and adults to ensure they have the tools and support they need to thrive in everyday life.

Whether working with a child in early intervention, an adult recovering from a neurological injury, or someone with complex seating and positioning needs, my goal is to ensure that each individual receives comprehensive, compassionate care designed to meet their specific needs.
