I love supporting nonspeakers, their families and their support teams!
My goal is to help create more understanding, connection, and confidence along the way.
I believe nonspeakers are competent, aware, and communicating in more ways than we may realize.
I also know families and support teams are often doing their very best in situations that can feel confusing or overwhelming.
I want to come alongside you with practical tools, thoughtful support, and a gentle reminder that every tiny step toward greater connection matters.

Awesome Nonspeakers Podcast
For over 12 years, I have worked with nonspeakers and their families. This podcast is a place where I share what I have learned, what I am still learning, and the unique tools that have helped so many families feel more calm, connected, and supported.
I presume competence, honor connection, and make space for hope for nonspeakers, unreliable speakers, and their families.
You will hear interviews with parents and insights from nonspeakers and unreliable speakers.
The podcast supports families with children across a wide range of diagnoses and experiences, including autism, apraxia, aphasia, Down syndrome, and more.
And if you know there is more to your child than the world may see or hear, this podcast is for you.
Grounding and Shielding Class
Grounding and shielding are one of the foundational tools I love to teach.
The Grounding and Shielding class teaches foundational tools I use all the time. These practices can help you feel calmer, more steady, and more protected, especially if you or your child are sensitive to the emotions around you.
This class also includes a free picture book and visualizations to help you get started in an easy and gentle way.
Learn to Meditate
Meditation is another foundational tool I love to teach.
I have some podcast episodes and easy to follow instructions to help you start on this journey.
