Meet Regina
I’m a certified speech language pathologist with over 15 years of diverse experience from in home, clinical and preschool/school based therapy settings.
​
As a young child, I received speech language therapy for stuttering and stutter intermittently today. My relationship with stuttering was sometimes a little “bumpy” but I’m so thankful it is part of my story since it has led me to where I am today! I was also a bit of a picky eater! I’m fortunate to have my experiences guide my career passion in helping others communicate and expand their relationship with new foods!
​
I offer personalized, compassionate support for picky, sensory sensitive and/or anxious eaters by guiding children through the steps of food exploration, expanding their food variety, and fostering positive mealtime habits. My therapy is a family centered approach by collaborating closely with the client and family to create a treatment plan that addresses each individual need, as well as connecting carryover to the home and community environments. I also enjoy speaking at professional events, such as college programs and school districts, to talk about feeding / food exploring and stuttering.
