I am passionate about supporting children to build communication skills that allow them to engage in the things that bring them the most joy. Through prioritising connection, I create a safe and positive space and encourage learning through interests and strengths.

I bring empathy and experience to working with families in understanding and valuing neurodivergence. I work with families to design a service delivery option that suits the child’s needs, working with parents and educators to wrap supports around children, and supporting children to build skills and self-advocacy so that they can be their best selves in a world that is not always built for them. I draw upon my years of experience in both school-based, private, and clinical education roles to deliver evidence-based supports that also consider the uniqueness of every child and family. I highly value the experience and expertise of families, educators and other health professionals, and strive to integrate different perspectives in my practice to continually grow as a speech pathologist and better support my clients.

I have experience working with children and young adults with a broad range of communication needs, including speech sound disorders, language and literacy difficulties, hearing impairment, multimodal communication, as well as children with feeding difficulties. My areas of passion include early language development, Augmentative and Alternative Communication, neurodivergent communication, trauma-informed care, and speech sound disorders.  

In my spare time, you’ll find me enjoying endless cups of tea, crafting and creating, and trying to keep up with my 2 labradors and 2 young daughters!
