Hi, I’m Olivia.

I’m a pediatric speech-language pathologist and the found of Liv Beyond Words. My passion is helping children communicate in ways that are meaningful to them while giving families the knowledge and confidence to support communication beyond the therapy session.

I earned both my bachelors and masters of science in Communication Sciences and Disorders from the University of New Hampshire (Go Wildcats!). During graduate school, my research focused on childhood apraxia of speech and the development of a more naturalistic assessment approach, which later led to a published paper with my research peer and mentor.

After graduating, I moved to Oceanside, CA to complete my 9 month clinical fellowship. I worked in a pediatric outpatient care providing services through telehealth, clinic-based, in-home, and even in school. It was through this work that my passion for AAC, early intervention, gestalt language processing, and family-centered care continued to grow.

Today, I’m back in New Hampshire, where I created Liv Beyond Words to provide individualized , evidence-based, neuro-affirming communication support to children and their families.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, finding local coffee shops, and explore all that New England has to offer with my two GSPs.
