Hello! I'm Jenna, I am a Speech Language Pathologist and a mom.
As a mom of a young child, I was inspired to bridge the gap between my therapy practices, and the reality raising a young child of moment to moment. Meeting challenges (and joyful times) with curiosity and a sense of discovery has been an anchor professionally and personally.
My professional work with families with young children is based in my passion for recognizing individual's strengths and creativity. My work includes family relationships, because it takes 2 (at least!) to communicate.
