The Story Behind Thankfully Inspired.
As a veteran spouse and a member of a construction family, I’ve experienced the upheaval and uncertainty that come with frequent relocations. Over the past twenty-six years, my husband and I have lived in thirteen states, two other countries, and called eighteen different houses home. This journey has instilled in me a deep sense of empathy and gratitude for the path I’ve traveled. It has also ignited a desire to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of others. My nomadic lifestyle cultivated a commitment to helping other families, mothers, and professionals find the support and connection they need, especially as frequent moves often disrupt access to the right specialists.​ The challenges and growth from this lifestyle have shaped me and inspired me to be better and do better for others.
​
With Thankfully Inspired, I set out with a clear purpose: to offer effective, compassionate speech-language-feeding therapy services that empower children and support their families. I specialize in working with children with Autism, utilizing AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication), addressing motor speech disorders, feeding, and providing myofunctional therapy. Through virtual services, my team and I are able to reach and support families across the United States.
​
At Thankfully Inspired, we focus on making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families. Our services are rooted in understanding, compassion, and a deep respect for each unique journey. My team and I are here to support, uplift, and work alongside you to create a positive impact.
