Hello! I am a licensed, American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA) certified speech-language pathologist. I have worked in South Hadley since 2017 and have prior experience in both the school and hospital settings.
I am eager to work with your child this year. We will have some fun while accomplishing our speech and language goals! Please feel free to contact me any time if you have any questions or concerns regarding your child's speech and language services. It's going to be a great year!

UPDATE: 3/2020 Due to the unprecedented closing of public schools to prevent the spread of COVID-19, I will be updating my website periodically with activities, apps or websites that might be helpful to you and your child to keep the language learning going at home. Please reach out to me any time if you would like more activities or have questions or concerns. In the short term, please see below for a list of fun, practical language activities that I put together that might be fun for the whole family during your time at home.

If you are not able to print, use the document as a reference and complete one item per turn using any board game that you have on hand at home. Some of these resources were created by my colleague, Rebecca Lavelle, SLP, and others we have permission to share at this time. No copyright violation has occurred.

Below, please find the link for PBS Kids. The"Pinkredible Story Maker" on PBS Kids is a fun way to help children with their narration skills. Have your child create their own story using the Story Grammar Elements: Characters, Setting, Initiating Event/Kickoff, Plan, Events, Resolution, Character Feelings. You, the caregiver, can create a story as well, and have your child retell the story to you. Have fun with this! Additionally, on the PBS Kids website, there are many games targeting following directions, vocabulary development, and linguistic concepts.
