Stroke and Brain Injury Change Lives. So Do I.
I treat adults with neurogenic speech, language, and cognitive disorders in their home setting. My treatment philosophy is to be as functional and practical as possible. While I work with all levels of disability, my primary area of interest is helping adults regain as much of their prior independence as possible.

My major areas of interest are: aphasia, memory deficits, attention difficulties, augmentative and alternative communication and problem-solving.

My work experience includes working in the outpatient department of Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital in Boston with adult survivors of stroke and brain injury. I have also served as an adjunct professor at Emerson College
