Clinical experience

Emily joined Beyond Limits Pediatric Therapy Center in 2020 as a licensed and certified Speech-Language Pathologist. She brings extensive clinical experience working with children and young adults, including many years serving students ages 3 through 22 in the public school system. Her professional background also includes working with older adults in skilled nursing facilities, private practice, and independent contracting.

In addition to her work at Beyond Limits, Emily continues to serve students as a Speech-Language Pathologist in the school system. Her experience in both educational and outpatient clinical settings gives her a valuable perspective on the communication challenges children face across different environments and the importance of helping them develop skills that carry over into everyday life.

Emily has experience evaluating and treating a wide range of communication disorders, including articulation and phonological disorders, receptive and expressive language delays, pragmatic language difficulties, voice disorders, and fluency disorders. Her particular clinical interests include early language development, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental language disorders.

Emily is also a strong advocate for Gestalt Language Processors and neurodiversity-affirming speech-language therapy. She recognizes that children develop and use language in different ways and believes in respecting each child's unique communication style, strengths, and developmental needs. She is passionate about helping families understand and support their child's communication journey while creating therapy experiences that celebrate individuality and encourage meaningful communication.

Through her years of clinical practice, Emily discovered that her greatest passion is working with children and helping them develop lifelong communication skills. She finds tremendous fulfillment in watching children strengthen their ability to express their wants, needs, and thoughts, allowing them to connect more confidently and meaningfully with their families, friends, and communities.

Emily values building strong relationships with children and their families and strives to create engaging, individualized therapy experiences that support meaningful progress both inside and outside the therapy room.

Beyond the clinic

Outside of work, Emily loves spending time with her husband, son, family, and friends. She and her family enjoy outdoor adventures and traveling, especially taking trips in their camper. An avid tennis player, Emily loves staying active and spending as much time outdoors as possible, whether she's on the tennis court, exploring somewhere new, or enjoying time with the people she loves.
