Deaf & Hard-of-Hearing
personalized support for parents, children and individuals
Culturally Competent & ASL fluent
Every individual and family has a unique set of needs. I evaluate your needs, strengths and barriers and use that to identify the necessary interventions to set you up for success. I offer a safe space with an empathic and knowledgeable presence to help you navigate the challenges ahead.
We’ll craft a unique approach that will reduce frustration and isolation. I will familiarize you with communication tools, self-advocacy, technology, accommodations, resources and community connections to help you and your loved ones thrive.
If you or someone close to you is experiencing hearing loss or deafness, let me support and guide you on this journey.
I work with all ages and identities, including:
Newly diagnosed infants or adults
Deaf, deaf, DeafBlind, Late Deafened, Hard of Hearing
Parents, Partners, Family, CODA & SODA
I've walked the complicated line of living in both the Hearing and Deaf worlds, being both a consumer and a provider.
I know the challenges and the art of being in-between.
