For me, Lighthouse Therapy is more than a company. It's a calling.

I have been a Speech Language Pathologist for 30 years and a teletherapist for 13 years. In 2018, I felt unsettled in my current role as an SLP. I asked God, "What should I do next?" and had no idea that God would lead me to start an online therapy company that would impact the lives of thousands of students every single year.
