Services
I provide Prompt Therapy in your home, at the best time for you and your child, for as long as you need me. I begin by conducting a comprehensive evaluation that assesses your child's speech motor system. Together, we set short-term and long-term goals for your child and a road map to achieve these goals. I am happy to collaborate with your child's teachers, school administrators and other therapists.
