Don't mind us...... just getting ready for the afternoon rush!

The therapy rooms are buzzing and the materials are stacked high! From fun games and sensory bins to AAC devices and literacy tools.... every material is ready to help our clients soar. 🐔

This is our busiest time of day, filled with laughter, learning, and meaningful moments. Behind every busy clinician is a session filled with passion and purpose!

Because when the afternoon rush hits at Speech Hens, we’re not just busy... we’re changing lives, one voice at a time. 💬💛

Today is World Autism Day, an annual observance to raise awareness about autism spectrum disorder (ASD). ❤️🩵

At Speech Hens, we celebrate and support all voices...because communication looks different to everyone and all voices deserve to be heard, valued and respected.

We are proud to create an inclusive and neurodiversity-affirming space where everyone can feel safe to express themselves.

Whether thats through words, actions, AAC, play, or connection.

Today and everyday we stand with our autistic clients and their families to celebrate their strengths and embrace their differences.

Let's support communication with compassion. Because at Speech Hens, every voice matters🩵❤️

When therapy looks like this…...it’s intentional 🧠

Building a marble tower might look like “just play,” but it’s actually a powerful, evidence-informed approach to learning.

In this moment, we’re targeting:
↪️speech skills and motor speech movements
↪️expressive and receptive language
↪️joint attention and engagement
↪️turn-taking and social communication
↪️problem-solving and flexible thinking
↪️following directions and sequencing

By following the child’s lead, we increase motivation, participation, and meaningful communication opportunities.

Play-based therapy isn’t “extra"- it’s how children learn best.

Because when therapy is engaging, it becomes effective 💫

Happy birthday to this lovely human, Kyla!!

We couldnt be any more lucky to have Kyla with us for 7 weeks as she completes her CDA placement with us!

Kyla is no stranger to us as she has been a volunteer over the last few summers here at Speech Hens! We've always enjoyed her creativity, kindness, and compassion as she observes kids.

Today also happens to be her birthday and we love that she is celebrating with us! Help us give her a big birthday welcome! ❤️❤️

At Speech Hens, the flock is 100% female and 100% fierce. 💪🐔

This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating the passionate women behind our clinic: SLPs, CDAs, and staff who work every day to help others find their voice and use it with confidence.

Because when women lift each other up, everyone’s voice gets louder.

Here’s to strong women and the powerful voices they help create. 💜

If you are new around here.... Welcome to Speech Hens! 🐤🐥

Hi! We're Marianne and Laura- the co-owners behind Speech Hens 👋🏽

We are Speech-Language Pathologists and passionate believers that everyone deserves to communicate with confidence. We built this clinic so our rural community could have access to the services that was needed here.

Therapy should feel supportive, empowering and even a little (or a lot of) fun! And thats exactly what we base each session off of!

At Speech Hens, we:
🐣 Support early language development
📚 Help build strong literacy skills
🗣Work with children, teens and adults on speech and stuttering
🩷 Focus on confidence just as much as communication, and so much more....!!

We are so glad you're here. Whether you're a long time follower or just following us, welcome to the coop! 🐤🐥

Today we wear pink to stand up against bullying.

At Speech Hens, our slogan "Communicate with Confdience" wasn't chosen by accident. It was created from the heart of what we do every single day. 🩷

We support individuals who may have been teased because of their speech, voice, language, or communication differences. We help them rebuild and grow their confidence!

🩷No one should ever feel small because of how they speak..... or how they dress, or what they look like.

Today and every day we remind our clients that their voices matter!

Guess who's back in the coop?

Our fabulous Clinic Coordinator, Nicole, has officially returned from maternity leave and we couldn't be more egg-cited!

From keeping our schedules on track to supporting our clinicians and families, Nicole is the heart of our hen house 🐔

We have missed you, Nicole! Happy to have you back!

Can we ask you a favour?

Last year our clinic supported over 80 children to learn to read and write through comprehensive assessments and individualized intervention.

This year, our goal is to reach more children who need the support. **Please share this post so we can reach more children who are needing these services.**

We often get asked what the difference is between a tutor and our services so here is an explanation. We work together with tutors to provide the best plan for intervention for kiddos needing reading and writing services.

Reach out if you think your child needs a comprehensive assessment! Also check to see if your private insurance coverage supports speech and language services!
