Agenda
Speech-Language Pathologist with 24 years of experience working with and advocating for people living with neurological conditions and the families who support them. Throughout my career, I’ve seen firsthand how much a diagnosis can change a family’s life, and how often the care partner’s own needs go overlooked. I created this service to offer the understanding, guidance, and steady support families deserve along the way.
I offer a compassionate, knowledgeable person to talk to, someone who listens without judgment, helps you make sense of information, and supports you as you navigate the challenges ahead. Drawing on my clinical experience and understanding of neurological conditions, I can help you prepare questions, explore resources, and find your footing when things feel uncertain.
