I have been a speech pathologist for 10+ years. I started my career in 2007 in the outpatient clinics and acute care setting at Children's Health. After 4 years, I started working at Therapy 2000, a home health company in Dallas. In December of 2012, I went back to Children's and began growing the therapy teams across Children's. In March of 2017, I started my private practice, Speech and Feeding of Frisco. I love working with children and making a difference in their lives!

Feeding Therapy Works
As a speech pathologist that specializes in feeding therapy, I encourage families to stick with a solid meal/snack schedule. As a mom, I encourage you to stick with listening to your child. Remember, your responsibility is to decide what they are given and when. Their responsibility is to decide which of those items they eat and how much they eat.
