Time to Embrace the Spring Light and Your light

 I work at three schools as a speech therapist.  Each school has their Spirit Week or Hope Week. 

Today one of my secondary schools had Bling Day.  I got to wear my fancy jacket.

The whole week was about "Hope" letting in the light during dark moments or letting others bring their light to you during your dark moments. What a great message for Hope Week.

Here is my bling outfit. Thanks to a friend (Annette) who likes to shop and find great deals. She is a very generous person who lets her light shine to so many people.  I hope you have a friend who brings you light or you can be a friend to others that need light. I hope I can be more like her.

Speaking of Hope, if your child or you need help with speech, check into my intensive summer speech program. See the previous blog for details.

Summer Speech Plans

Yes, It's only Spring, but it's never too early to start planning for Summer
It's a great time to start thinking of summer speech therapy for your child. If your child has resistive articulation issues, check out the visual tool that may be the answer to help them get their speech sounds on target. 

I'm letting you know that I am holding my intensive summer speech program in June again. I did it last summer and it worked out well after being out of it for a couple years due to Covid. I'm running the program out of my home. 

Feel free to let parents know if they'd like to try visual speech therapy using the SmartPlate, they can reach out to me. I only do the therapy.  However, they can also look up information on CompleteSpeech.com for the SmartPalate information. I can also answer most of their questions. They can email me at adorais159@gmail.com or text/call at 801-372-4383. They can email for the details and available spots. Most of the detail are listed on by blog at https://palatometertherapy.blogspot.com/ 

 ================================================================= 
 What is the Summer Intensive Speech Therapy?   
You can choose with or without the smart palate system for the summer speech program.  
You should obtain the finished product before June from CompleteSpeech Company that makes the device but they don't provide therapy. Call them to find out how long it will take to get the final product (mouthpiece). Their time table has changed and is taking longer to receive your child's customized mouthpiece. Call them for full details. 

Disclosure; I have no financial ties nor do I get get any commission from CompleteSpeech).
