About me
Hi! I'm Victoria. My grandma was a speech-language pathologist (SLP)! She introduced me to the profession while I was deciding on a career in high school. I have always enjoyed working with children, and I knew I wanted to be in the medical field to some capacity. I am trained in LAMP and certified in the Hanen approach (More Than Words). I have worked in settings such as schools, outpatient pediatric clinics, outpatient hospitals, and telepractice. I would describe my clinical style as functional and individualized/personalized.

Our speech-language pathologist was patient and kind. She made me feel less nervous and was able to engage my uncooperative toddler. I appreciated that the evaluation was to the point and we were able to schedule our next appointment.
