I have been working with children with varying personalities and abilities since I was a sunday school teaching assistant at the age of 14. I have worked with children with ADD, ADHD ASD, etc in various capacities. My passion inspired me to become a speech therapist in a special education setting. I specialize in Social Skills, AAC, and Language development. I have ample AAC experience, create nearly all of my therapeutic and educational tools, and have experience in implementing interactive visual supports within the home and vehicle. Furthermore, I create adapted books for individuals who are AAC communicators or may have difficulties reading. I am hoping provide my care and expertise to a family who would benefit from such. Additional experience includes but is not limited to: - Adolescent to adult social emotional development - Habilitating reading and written disabilities - Teaching - Tutoring - Executive Function Therapy & Coaching - Cognitive Communication Rehab
