I offer therapy and consultation services in a variety of settings, including in my clinic, in the client’s home and school, in community environments, and via telehealth.

Consultation

After the background is collected, an initial consultation by phone will be scheduled to gather more specific information about the client’s communication and guide your next steps—whether they involve working with me or receiving recommendations to other professionals.

Assessments

I typically start with a visit to your home to observe the client in their most comfortable and natural environment. I conduct a mix of extensive observation with parent reports, and I utilize non-standardized assessments and criterion-reference tests. Visits to school and other therapy settings are also available.

Therapy

Based on the findings, therapy can be conducted in individual or small group therapy sessions, in a variety of settings, for a determined amount of time, in any combination of the following:

A: In-person sessions at home, my clinic, or in school
B: Telehealth sessions via Zoom or other platforms
C: Local community outings, with or without the family
D: Group settings in the backyard of my home clinic
E. Co-treat sessions with other professionals

The woman with black hair is scooping fruit from a blue divided tray, which contains bananas, green grapes, blueberries, and raspberries, while the boy reaches out for a piece of fruit.

Family Coaching

I offer a collaborative approach to help recognize the family’s collective strengths and navigate challenges. I empower them to reach their self-identified goals and improve family dynamics. I work with siblings to build stronger relationships and model strategies for the parents and extended family members.  A variety of home exercises for practice are provided.

Social Groups & Summer Camps

The social communication groups are led by Luna, as a skilled speech-language pathologist, or in conjunction with an occupational therapist (OT), Tami Pallott, and supported by youth assistants. Small groups meet in a natural, relaxed setting, such a backyard or community park. SP.OT ON Summer Camps and year-round groups focus on speech, language, social skills and occupational therapy. There are also various groups for clients receiving myofunctional therapy and “Open Myo Gyms” to drop in and practice with different peers.

Professional Training (In-Person, Virtual, & Video)

I offer training to help professionals understand communication disorders, identify challenges in caregiving, make appropriate referrals, and access resources for intervention programs. These sessions may qualify for continued education units (CEUs) for the American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA).
