About me

Hello! I'm April. I became a licensed speech-language pathologist (SLP) in 2005 to serve others. I view it as a unique privilege to care for the needs of individuals and their families while empowering them to navigate the life changes which come about when difficulties in communication, cognition, and/or swallowing occur. I endeavor to help people to see beyond the challenges of the diagnosis and gain confidence in their abilities. I have worked in a variety of settings including Outpatient (Pediatric and Adult), Acute Rehabilitation (Adult), Home Health (Pediatric), Private Practice (Pediatric), Skilled Nursing, Specialized Autism School, and Telehealth (Pediatric). I am certified in Modified Barium Swallow Studies (Adult), Fiberscopic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (Adult), VitalStim Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (Adult), Deep Pharyngeal Neuromuscular Stimulation (Adult), Videostroboscopic Voice Evaluation (Adult). Overall, I would describe my therapeutic style as holistic, client and/or family-centered, individualized/personalized, and rooted in client empowerment by creating self-advocates.

My Son and I really enjoyed working with Ms. April! She is so joyful and made (my son) feel comfortable immediately. She does a wonderful job explaining why he is working on his speech and not belittling him or making him feel shame for the things he needs to work on. He looks forward to his sessions with her and I'm so confident that he will make more progress with these sessions than he's been able to make in school.

April was excellent! She gave the option for us to have him evaluated for everything and we were definitely pleased with the feedback we received it was so detailed.

Ms April is always kind and compassionate. She encourages me even though there is little to know improvement in my speech.

M.B./Apr 21, 2023

She is super great and so sweet and very patient with my son and takes time to help him stay focused and give a brake when he gets antsy.

C.T./Apr 20, 2023

Dr. April is very kind and patient with (my child). She makes efforts to tailor each session to him and his needs, and has given a lot of great feedback and direction.
