About me

Hi! I'm Marisa. I became a speech-language pathologist (SLP) in order to make a difference in children's lives. I also like that I have the opportunity to treat a wide variety of clients across the lifespan. I love being part of a team of people working toward a child's goals and creating a plan for families to carry out at home. I have worked in settings such as schools and private practice. I would describe my clinical style as client-centered, functional, and family-centric.
