Excellent information to help your practice!

I discovered Kelly through a continuing education seminar and her information, along with her book, has changed almost everything about how I do preschool articulation therapy! I love listening to the podcast and hearing her break down things she discusses in her book - it really helps give me new ideas for things to try to help my kiddos make their greatest gains!

Big fan of Kelly

Kelly is that rare clinician that can distill research into actionable interventions. She’s not afraid to say what she feels needs to be said and yet she delivers her message with love and grace.

Excellent

Kelly brings her compassion and knowledge to pediatric speech therapy. Thank you for bringing awareness to gestalt learning styles, temporal cueing as well as ADHD in SLPs. I am also an SLP with ADHD and found your podcast on this so helpful and validating. Please keep up the amazing work!
