Introduction

Hi! I'm Amy, a pediatric speech-language pathologist based in Petaluma, CA. I've been working with children and young adults (ages 18 months-20 years) to develop effective communication skills since 2005. I'm a generalist and have experience diagnosing and treating speech and language delays, receptive/expressive language disorders, articulation/phonological disorders, childhood apraxia of speech, auditory processing difficulties, autism spectrum disorder, social communication disorder, stuttering, and dyslexia. I love individualized care and developing supportive relationships with my clients and their families. I see the value in using child-led and neurodiverse-affirming therapy. There is nothing better than improving functional communication while also having fun and building self-esteem! In my free time, I enjoy hiking, baking, and singing in various Bay Area music projects.

What words would you use to describe yourself?

Kind
Engaging
Committed
Kind: I sincerely care about the well-being of my clients and try to create a space where they feel respected, comfortable, and can build their confidence.
Engaging: I use fun, preferred activities to keep my clients interested so they will be motivated to try their best.
Committed: Through continuing education, regular collaboration, and flexibility, I work hard to implement effective therapy techniques. I am dedicated to helping my clients develop their communication skills.

Who are you best positioned to serve?

As a generalist, I help people with a wide variety of speech and language needs. I often support those that would benefit from early intervention as well as improvements in language understanding/formulation, speech sound repertoire, and social language skills. Feeding and swallowing is not my area of expertise, but I am happy to recommend useful resources.

    Amy is very nice and pleasant to work with. So accommodating with our busy schedule. She always come prepared for our home service speech therapy eventhough it’s only an hour session but it’s definitely worth it. Very helpful and insightful.

    Beaming Review

    Our son worked with Amy as his Speech Pathologist for three and a half years. When he started working with her, we really didn't know what was in store for him with his speech development. The unknowns were scary at times. But at every step of the way, from assessment to diagnosis to treatment, Amy communicated with such clarity, honesty, and compassion, that we always knew we were in good hands. Her detailed and regular progress reports helped us to see improvement and understand what the next goals were as we went along. We were fortunate with many things in this process, including identifying the issue early, having a cooperative child, and being able to get him to appointments 2-3 times a week for such a long period. But we also know that we were really, really fortunate to have found Amy. Our son is doing great now, and although these days we live far away, we've kept in touch with Amy ever since. We can't thank her enough for the wonderful care she gave to all three of us.

    Amy has been working with my daughter for over 10 years. She is very friendly. She builds a very strong relationship with her clients. Amy is also very responsive to parents requests. We have meetings every few months regarding milestones reached and new goals. She is also very clear in her explanations during these meetings with parents.
