Meet Cat

Hi, I’m Cat! I’m a pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist and the founder of Growing Minds. I help children find joy, confidence, and connection through communication. I’ve supported children and families across schools, private practice, and community-based programs in New York City, and now serve families in the Palm Beach county area.

My work centers on child-led, play-based therapy that builds communication skills through connection, curiosity, and confidence. I value evidence-based practice to building the underlying speech, language, cognitive and social foundations that help children thrive across environments.

I have a background in early childhood education and years of experience working with children with a variety of communication profiles, including late talkers, gestalt language processors, autistic learners, speech sound disorders, and emerging language learners.

I’m passionate about helping parents feel supported, informed, and empowered every step of the way. Communication doesn’t just happen in therapy; it happens at home, in the car, at the dinner table, and through everyday moments. When families feel confident, kids thrive.

Growing Minds is built on connection, celebration, and possibility. Every child is capable. Every family deserves support. And every win, big or small, matters.
