About me

Hi! I'm Giovanna. I became a licensed speech-language pathologist (SLP) in 2021. I became an SLP to give patients access to communication and aid in enhanced quality of life. I think relationships are such a foundational piece of who we are and how we feel our best and I want to help my patients have all the tools they can to establish and maintain these relationships across all ages. I have received trainings and certifications in the following: ASHA National Outcomes Measurement System (NOMS), MBSImP Standardized Training and Reliability Testing, Estill Voice Training, ProAccent Coaching, AAC intensive clinical training. I have worked in clinical settings such as: skilled nursing facility, pediatric private practice, school, neurological in-patient rehabilitation unit, and clinic. I would describe my clinical style as holistic, client-centered, functional, family-centric, sensory integrated and rooted in client empowerment to create self-advocates.
