I’m a licensed, ASHA-certified speech-language pathologist and a New Jersey neighbor. I work with school-age children and adults across our area through secure online sessions, so there’s no waitlist and no drive across town, just quality one-on-one care from the comfort of home.

Local families, seen from home
Speech therapy that fits a Union County schedule
Between school, activities, and getting everyone where they need to be, adding a weekly drive to a clinic isn’t always realistic. Because I see every client online, your child gets consistent, one-on-one therapy without the commute or the crowded waiting room. You can be right there in the session, so what we work on carries into everyday life at home.
I’m local to the Summit, Berkeley Heights, and New Providence area, and I know how much families here care about giving their kids the right support at the right time. Online therapy makes that easier to start, with no waitlist to wait out.
What I help with
Support for children and adults
Speech sounds & clarity (children)
For kids who are hard to understand, mix up sounds, or leave sounds out. Therapy helps make being understood easier, at home and at school.
See how I help childrenLanguage & social communication
Following directions, building sentences, reading social cues, and keeping up with friendships and the classroom.
Explore language therapyStuttering & fluency
Practical, supportive strategies that help kids and adults speak with more ease and confidence. It’s never about perfection.
When to worry about stutteringAuditory processing
For kids who hear fine but have a hard time making sense of what they hear: following directions, tuning out background noise, and keeping up in a busy classroom. I provide therapy and support, often alongside your audiologist.
How I help childrenAdults & professionals
Clarity and communication confidence, accent modification, and speech recovery after a stroke or injury.

No. I see every client online, which is exactly why there’s no waitlist and no commute. I work with families over secure video, right from home.
Is online speech therapy really as effective as in person?
For many children and adults, yes. Research shows telehealth speech therapy can be as effective as in-person sessions, and being at home often makes practice feel more natural and relaxed.
