Grace in the Gaps: My Journey Through Widowhood, Motherhood, and Grad School

"I started Little Sparrows Pediatric Therapy to create a place where children and families feel supported, seen, and guided every step of the way."

My journey has been filled with unknowns—much like the families I work with. I was pregnant with our second child when my husband passed unexpectedly, and suddenly I was navigating grief, uncertainty, and raising two boys on my own. I don’t know exactly how your journey feels, but I do know what it’s like when life feels uncertain—and that’s why I walk alongside families, taking each small step forward with faith, hope, and persistence.

Those steps eventually led me to graduate school and my calling as a speech-language pathologist. It wasn’t just about earning a degree—it was about creating a life filled with purpose, healing, and hope. Along the way, I learned that progress isn’t always neat, and healing isn’t linear—but persistence, even in the mess, opens the door to growth.

Today, as the owner of Little Sparrows Pediatric Therapy, I bring that perspective to my work with children and families. I know what it feels like to worry, hope, and celebrate the smallest victories. Every child’s journey is unique, and every step forward—no matter how small—is meaningful.

At Little Sparrows Pediatric Therapy, we’re here to walk alongside you, celebrate victories big and small, and help your child thrive in speech, language, communication, and daily life skills. You don’t have to do it alone—we’ll take each step together.
