About me

Hello! I'm Amanda. I have been practicing since 2012 and have had the chance to work with many different populations. I decided to pursue this field because I have always been fascinated by the power of communication; it is truly at the heart of the human experience. I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to touch the lives of so many people from all walks of life and help empower them to be the best communicators they can be by providing individualized, holistic treatment. I continue to be amazed at how much my clients have taught me, and I strive to always prioritize what is most important to them!

Amanda is incredibly smart, thoughtful, tactful, and perceptive in pointing out things I may have missed while also making me feel comfortable. She has very good people skills on top of her expertise in speech therapy.

She was extremely patient with my child, and was extremely kind and playful.

Amanda is absolutely THE BEST speech pathologist! Her understanding, expertise, patience and teaching skills certainly have had a positive effect on my son. I have learned SO much from her as well. We cannot be happier with the level of communication throughout each session and even in between days. If all of the expressable pathologists are in the same vain, then WOW! I highly recommend!!

As a parent, I like Amanda because she’s super smart and explains why she teaches a certain way. My son likes her because she’s engaging and nice.

S.N./Jan 6, 2021

She treats every facet of the issue. I had tounge thrust and she determined that I had a lot of tension in my Masseter, which was part of a clenching issue. After giving me exercises to help with the tension, she remarked that my situation sounded like TMJ and to discuss with my doctor. He determined that I did have it and we're treating it.
