🎓✨ Celebrating a Big Milestone! ✨🎓
Last week, Mrs. Michelle’s ULL graduate student officially wrapped up her externship at MSLT and what an incredible semester it was! 💙🗣️
Maria, we absolutely loved having you as part of our team. Your dedication, compassion, and passion for helping children shine did not go unnoticed. We’re so excited to watch you continue your journey toward becoming an amazing speech-language pathologist! 🌟
From Maria:
“This past semester, I had the privilege of working closely with Mrs. Michelle as part of my graduate training to become a speech-language pathologist. I learned so much, grew as a clinician, and gained confidence in supporting children and families through thoughtful, child-centered therapy. I am so thankful for my time at Moss Speech Therapy and for Mrs. Michelle’s guidance, encouragement, and support!” ❤️
We’re cheering you on every step of the way, Maria! 🎉🎓💙

A few weeks ago Dr. Natalie Douglas coordinated a heartfelt screening of C. Nathaniel Brown’s film “Remember Me”. It was a beautiful night talking about hard conversations surrounding dementia, caregiving and the African-American community.

Thank you to all our community partners who made this possible!!!
