Meet Jamie
I’m trained as a Speech-Language Pathologist, but because of my unique and holistic approach, my clients often ask, “what do I call you?!” when they introduce me to another member of their support team (teachers, therapists, school counselors) to collaborate.
Along with my background in Speech-Language Pathology, I utilize a combination of tools ranging from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), PROMPT, and children’s yoga to create goals, strategies, and hyper-individualized therapeutic activities. I provide executive function coaching for both adults and children
My goal is for you and/or your child to feel supported and confident in whatever area we are working in, whether it be executive functions, articulation, early speech and language, or social skills. It is my priority to meet each child where they are and find new and creative ways to make our sessions equally fun and productive.
I received my Masters in Speech-Language Pathology from the Massachusetts General Hospital Institute of Health Professions. I’m certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, with licenses in New York, California, and Massachusetts. Over the last 15 years, I’ve worked with children and adults of all ages in homes, schools, private practices, and hospitals.
