International Professional Experience

MY APPROACH IN ONE LINE

Connection before communication.
Understanding before expectation.
Clarity before overwhelm.

I don’t just work with children—I work with families, so no parent feels lost, helpless, or unsure of what to do next.

My Sessions Are Child-Led (Because Happy Children Learn Best)

I do not force responses.
I do not rush children.
I do not expect compliance before connection.

I follow the child’s interests, emotions, and regulation because:

Happy children are successful communicators.

I love making research-based Resources and tools for Speech Therapy
