Clinical practice is grounded in the belief that every individual has potential and that communication may take many forms. Intervention emphasizes meaningful, functional communication and real-life application to support participation across everyday routines, relationships, and settings.

The approach to clinical decision-making has evolved through self-directed continuing education, evidence-based practice, and years of valuable collaborative learning experiences. Therapy is guided by presuming competence, honoring all forms of communication, and thinking beyond traditional approaches to support meaningful connection, growth, and participation.
