Meet Ann, a caring and dedicated Speech-Language Pathologist who earned both her Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts in Speech Language Pathology from the University of Toledo. Specializing in apraxia, speech sound disorders, and supporting late talkers, Ann brings a wealth of knowledge and warmth to every child she serves.

Ann’s favorite part of her work is the meaningful relationships she builds with children and families, and the joy of seeing her young clients make steady progress toward their communication goals. Her own experience in speech therapy as a child inspired her to pursue this rewarding career—she remembers loving her therapist and feeling supported every step of the way.

When working with a new child, Ann focuses on establishing trust and understanding their unique interests, ensuring each session feels fun and engaging. She draws inspiration from beloved children’s books like Where’s Spot? by Eric Hill, My Truck is Stuck! by Kevin Lewis, Good Dog Carl by Alexandra Day, Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle, and Don’t Push the Button by Bill Cotter. These stories reflect her playful, imaginative approach to therapy.

Outside of the therapy room, Ann enjoys staying active by teaching and practicing yoga, experimenting with sourdough baking, and traveling with her husband. Her dedication, creativity, and empathy make Ann a trusted partner in helping children find their voices and thrive.
