My Story
I became an educator 14 years ago, and have been helping young people grow and learn ever since. I first worked with English language learners, and then pursued a M.Ed. in special education. To be an effective teacher, you need to learn about your students as individuals with unique experiences and needs. I work closely with my students and their families to set academic and personal goals, and then teach the skills and strategies needed to meet them. For learning and growth to happen, I create a space in which students feel safe to explore.
Eyas Landing
Eyas Landing is a therapy clinic with a mission to provide evidence-based and family-centered therapy services for children, adolescents, and their families. The primary goal is to deliver relationship-based interventions within the most natural environments and to empower families to reach their full potential. To achieve this goal, our highly educated, compassionate staff dedicates time and expertise to create experiences that maximize therapeutic outcomes. The strength, determination, and perseverance of our clients are evident as they succeed in therapy, and ultimately in their daily lives.
Eyas Landing offers a wide range of comprehensive services including Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, ABA Therapy, Social Work, Family Therapy, and Neuropsych testing. Services are provided throughout the Chicagoland area via Telehealth, In-Home, and in our state of the art clinic.
