Speech-Language Pathologist | Lactation SpecialistBackground
I’m a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Lactation Counselor, and orofacial myofunctional therapist with a deep passion for helping people of all ages feel confident and comfortable in their bodies — especially when it comes to feeding, breathing, and communication. My journey into this work became even more personal after my first baby experienced tethered oral tissues and breastfeeding challenges. That experience gave me a new level of empathy and understanding, which now shapes how I support not just infants and families, but also teens and adults navigating their own oral health journeys. Whether I’m helping a baby learn to feed, supporting a toddler with oral motor development, or working with an adult dealing with jaw tension or sleep issues, my approach is always personalized, collaborative, and rooted in whole-body wellness. I offer infant feeding therapy, oral motor therapy for toddlers/kids, traditional speech & feeding therapy, and orofacial myofunctional therapy at Valley Tongue Tie and Sleep Wellness Center in Bethlehem, PA.
