What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a speech-language pathologist role where I can deliver evidence-based therapy for stuttering, motor speech, voice, and cognitive communication—especially with neurodivergent clients—while continuing to grow through training and strong clinical support.

I’m a certified speech-language pathologist (CCC-SLP) with 5 years of experience assessing and treating communication disorders across medical, home health, and private practice settings. I’m licensed in Ohio and Kentucky, and I’m especially drawn to work in stuttering, motor speech, voice, cognitive communication, and executive function.

In outpatient and home health roles, I create a safe, accepting environment and deliver skilled interventions for neurodivergent clients. My focus includes Natural Language Acquisition, expressive and receptive language, executive functioning, written expression, feeding, articulation and phonology, and orofacial myofunctional therapy.

I also bring strong clinical exposure from skilled nursing and graduate training, including dysphagia, aphasia, dysarthria, voice, and speaking valve therapy for tracheostomy populations. I continue to grow through targeted education such as PROMPT, and I’m interested in expanding my impact through evidence-based, client-centered care and clinical supervision.
