Bio
I am part of an interdisciplinary team of SLPs, PTs and IBCLCs with a functional and holistic mindset. I support families with nutrition education and counseling to help them achieve optimal pregnancy, breastfeeding, and postpartum experiences. I am a lactation consultant with years of experience and professional training to support families through low or high supply, food sensitivities and poor gut health, tethered oral tissues, other structural or functional feeding challenges, introducing solids, and picky eating. I support bottle feeding families in optimal feeding practices and navigating formula selection. We work together to build a plan with my patients and their families at the center. At my initial visit, I ask about my patients’ goals, experiences, and lifestyle to make sure my recommendations fit their needs. I love helping families meet their feeding goals and overcome challenges and feel honored to be able to walk and guide them in their journeys.
