Helping Young Children

Communicate with Confidence

One of the most common areas I address is Language Delays and Disordersβ€”when a child struggles to understand language (receptive) or express themselves clearly (expressive). These challenges can show up in many ways: a toddler who’s not yet talking, a preschooler who finds it hard to follow directions, or a school-age child who has trouble telling stories or organizing thoughts.

I support children as young as 18 months in overcoming communication challenges by creating meaningful, motivating experiences tailored to each child and their family. My approach is rooted in compassion, expertise, and a deep understanding of child development.

Through early identification and targeted support, children can build a strong foundation for communication, social connection, and academic success. That’s why I offer a range of services specifically designed to support language development.
