She came all the way from our Columbus office to meet someone who could show her what’s possible. ❤️

Violet is newer to spelling, so her mom brought her to our main office to meet Emily (one of our more experienced spellers).

Emily didn’t disappoint. She welcomed Violet, connected with her, and shared this advice:

“You can definitely learn to type, but you’ll sometimes feel lost. It’s important you keep practicing.”

That kind of peer encouragement is everything! A newer speller getting to learn from someone who’s been there before.

Columbus + Akron connected in the best way today. 💛

Erika is also accepting a few new speech therapy clients this summer ☀️🤍

She brings such a warm, playful energy to sessions and does an amazing job helping kids feel comfortable, engaged, and excited to communicate.

Summer can be a great time to start services - often with a little more flexibility and less pressure from the school-year schedule.

We work with individuals as young as 18 months through adulthood, focusing on real communication, confidence, and connection 🗣️

If you’d like to learn more or get on our summer schedule, we’d love to talk it through 👇

Most people don’t realize that speech sounds develop over time - not all at once.

Some sounds are expected early, while others don’t fully develop until closer to age 6 (or even later).

That said, every child is different and it’s not always easy to know what’s “typical” vs. when extra support might help.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering where your child falls, you’re not alone.

We’re always happy to talk through it with you - call us for a free consult 330-299-5121 🤍

She used her voice to say “upstairs.”
Then she spelled, “I want to swing together.”

Different ways, same message: connection 💙

This is why we support multiple paths to communication.
