Introduction: I have a Ph.D. in the field of cross-language speech perception and am certified by the Institute of Language and Phonology to deliver accent reduction services using the Compton-PESL method.
I also have experience in the area of pediatric speech and language disorders and worked in the public schools for many years prior to receiving my certification in accent reduction. I also have trained and supervised graduate students in this field at the University of South Florida Speech Language and Hearing Clinic and continue to teach at the University level.
I take great pride in my ability to help those with challenges in the areas of speech and language. At Small World Speech, we offer accent reduction services to those learning English as a second language and it is a great pleasure of mine to meet people from all over the world. We also offer help to children with speech and language disorders and enjoy helping families and children achieve the highest possible outcomes.
