My Services

I started Dynamic Expression so that I can make remarkable change with my families, and be a source of inspiration and growth! With this in mind:

Sessions are 1 hour in length and focus on direct and coaching models.

Those working with me can also access my 2x/ month free group meetings to connect with other families!

FAQ

1. Who are your clients and where are your sessions? 

I can work with clients in English and in Spanish.

I can work virtually with clients residing in: Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, New York, and California.  

I can see clients in Columbus OH at my in-home clinic in Grandview Heights, OH for a hybrid coaching / direct treatment model.

I can travel to your home for an additional $20 if your home is within 20 minutes of my clinic.

2. What is the evaluation process?

Families fill out questionnaires and video submissions prior to our first session. We review the information collected in the first session, and create a treatment plan together. Depending on the funding source and the needs of the family, a more comprehensive evaluation may be scheduled.

Comprehensive evaluations for Articulation, Language, Relationship Development Intervention, and / or AAC with a written report are $250-550 depending on time and need.

3. What is the structure of your sessions when servicing an Autistic child working on global communication skills?

I am trained in Relationship Development Intervention, which requires an initial educational series, video submissions, and sessions for reflection.

I typically recommend that 50% of sessions for the first 3-6 months be educational and reflective sessions, without the child present.

To supplement the program and build social language and communication skills, we will also follow techniques from the Play Project and Hanen More than Words.

4. For what type of family/ individual is a collaboration approach going to work?

My approach will work best for families who are motivated to learn the strategies for themselves. Families do best when they are able to reflect on their abilities, their progress, and their goals.  Instead of a teacher-student relationship, we will have a team-based relationship. 

Families who are very busy and have other stressors (medical, etc) may prefer a more direct approach. I try to adapt my therapy to fit a variety of family types and needs, but I always strive to keep open communication. Based on our initial conversation, we can see if Dynamic Expression will be a good fit.

5. What results can I expect?

  • Your child’s meaningful communication skills will improve
  • Communication initiated by your child will increase
  • You will feel more connected to your child
  • You will have a greater understanding of how to support your child in daily routines

7.  May I connect with some of your former clients to see what it’s like to work with you? 

Of course! I have several families who have agreed to speak with potential clients. Send me an email telling me a little about yourself and your child so I can reach out to the family that would best be able to answer your questions.
