Believe in the magic of communication
We are two bilingual speech language pathologists with more than 30 years of experience. Our partnership started in 2012 as two coworkers realizing that we shared a passion for knowledge and growth. Over the last decade, we have researched together the best treatment methods, trialed therapy techniques, and created resources based on evidence-based practice for Spanish and English-speaking therapists and families.
