As a neurodiversity-affirming provider, Ariel believes every child’s communication journey is unique and deserving of respect. Her goal is to empower children to build skills and confidence that enhance their everyday lives.

To empower every child to communicate confidently and meaningfully, building skills that support lifelong learning, relationships, and self-expression.
