Speech Therapy Wheelhouse

I’m a pediatric speech-language pathologist and the owner of Speech Therapy Wheelhouse, a child-centered speech therapy practice serving families in Northern New Jersey. I originally planned to work with adults, but after my first pediatric placement, I realized my true passion was helping young children learn to communicate with confidence through play, connection, and everyday routines. I specialize in working with children with speech and language delays, including gestalt language processing, childhood apraxia of speech (CAS), speech sound disorders, and developmental language delays. Instead of taking a “one-size-fits-all” approach, I’ve invested in advanced continuing education so I can provide evidence-based, highly individualized therapy that fits each child’s unique profile and learning style. Before starting my own practice, I worked in schools and private clinics, where I often saw large caseloads, quick sessions, and limited time for collaboration with families. Over time, I felt that children and parents needed something different: more time, more intention, and more support. That’s why I created Speech Therapy Wheelhouse—to offer high-quality, personalized speech therapy where every session feels meaningful, focused, and manageable for families. I intentionally keep my caseload small so I can truly get to know each child and family and be responsive to their needs. Sessions are play-based, engaging, and rooted in connection, because children make the most progress when they feel safe, understood, and motivated. Together, we work on functional goals that matter at home, at school, and in the community, while also giving parents practical strategies they can use between visits. My goal is not just to help children say more words or produce clearer sounds, but to help them feel confident being themselves when they communicate—with their families, teachers, and peers. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, evidence-based, and child-friendly approach to speech therapy, I’d be honored to support your child’s communication journey.
