About me

Hi! I’m Jillian. I became a speech-language pathologist because I’ve always been drawn to helping people communicate in ways that feel authentic, empowering, and life-changing. I have a deep love for working with children—their curiosity, resilience, and joy make every day meaningful. Watching a child find their voice, master a new skill, or connect more confidently with the world around them is something I never take for granted. I’m passionate about continued learning so I can bring the best possible support to every family I work with. I also value the opportunity to educate caregivers and empower them with tools that make a real difference at home. At my core, I’m here because I believe communication is connection—and being able to help children and families build that connection is one of the greatest privileges of my life. I hold specialized trainings and certifications in pediatric feeding, AAC use and implementation, and am recognized as an Autism Disorder Clinical Specialist. These advanced trainings allow me to provide informed, evidence-based support tailored to each child’s unique communication and feeding needs. My clinical experience spans diverse settings, including schools (Pre-K through 8th grade), in-home therapy, and teletherapy. I take a holistic, client-centered, and highly individualized approach to therapy. By integrating routines-based and sensory-integration-informed practices, I focus on supporting meaningful carryover of skills into daily life. I also prioritize family involvement, strengths-based strategies, and functional outcomes, helping each client build confidence, independence, and effective communication skills.
