About me

Hello! I'm Loren. Watching a close family member struggle with dysphagia and communication due to a Parkinson's diagnosis ignited in me a desire to help others. I have worked in pediatric outpatient settings and taken certification and trainings in the following: Beckman Oral Motor, Early Feeding Scale, IDDSI, SOFFI, Mealtime Miseries, MBSIMP, and LAMP. I would describe my clinical style as client-centered and individualized/personalized.

My daughter‘s therapist, Loren, always goes above and beyond to help [her] pay attention and get the most out of her session. Loren always exceeds our expectations and we are very grateful for the improvement we have seen in our daughter in less than one year.

Loren is wonderful. She has become a great support not just for my daughter but for our family. We are so grateful to have her as our daughter’s SLP.

My daughter‘s therapist Loren is incredible. She has helped my daughter immensely!!! She has been such a support to our family. Her advice has helped us make better decisions for our daughter and her future. Her sessions help me understand how I can help my daughter outside of therapy. We practice our homework all week every week and we constantly see improvement. My daughter went from only saying words to saying sentences, wants and needs and every week she says a little more. I’m so grateful to have her as my daughter‘s therapist. No words I say compare to my gratitude for Loren. She amazing!!!

Mrs. Lauren is very supportive and is always encouraging when (my son) gets frustrated. She keeps things interesting by finding different games for him to play during their sessions. He was really engaged in their battleship game, and even though he is sick and has a runny nose and cough, he was more than happy to practice his sounds with her.

My daughter has had an impressive progress with her expressive speech and it could have only been possible with the guidance of a professional like Loren. She’s kind and extremely good at her profession. Thank you!!!

We were skeptical about not having in person sessions for our daughter who is 7. But Loren was so amazing with her from the start. She made her feel comfortable and was very engaging. I would recommend her to anyone,, she helped build confidence and the progress that was made after a few months was amazing. We can’t thank Loren enough!

The therapist was very friendly and patient. She clarified my concerns, addressed them, and noted that she would need to continue the evaluation to provide a diagnosis.
