MS, CCC-SLP

Role:

Speech Therapist

Year I joined CPT:

2024

Favorite thing about CPT:

My favorite thing about CPT is the communication between therapists and families. I also love that the therapists are always willing to help other therapists.

Favorite intervention area:

I love early intervention and working with little ones because of the quick progress you can see from working with families in their natural environments. Providing families with suggestions and new ideas in routines helps to lead to the quick carry over.

Why speech therapy?

I chose speech therapy because I love working with kids and love the ability to make a difference in lives. I love the one-on-one ability to help a child reach his or her potential with communication skills.

Outside of CPT:

I’m married and have a 5-year-old son. My time is spent doing all the fun things with my son. His most recent fun activity is going to the library to check out books. He is very active and we love being out and about in the community in our free time.

What I wish more people knew about speech therapy:

I wish that more people knew that playing is learning. All children learn best through play as it’s most relevant to their daily life.
