More about me
As a dedicated Speech Therapist, my passion lies in early intervention and utilizing the power of play to strengthen the bond between parents and their little ones.
I firmly believe that every child has a unique way of engaging in play, and it is our responsibility to adapt to their interests, fostering creativity, and deepening engagement.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working in diverse settings, including Japan, enriching my understanding of cross-cultural communication.
As an advanced DIR Floortime practitioner, I hold a special place in my heart for supporting individuals with autism. Additionally, I have received specialized training in PROMPT and Hanen programs such as "It Takes Two to Talk" and "More than Words." Recognizing the importance of continuous growth, I am committed to being a lifelong learner.
