A Specialized Approach to Speech Therapy

An integrated approach to speech and myofunctional therapy targets muscle function that influences facial development, dental occlusion, and oral health. Together, we focus on eliminating detrimental oral habits, developing nasal breathing, establishing proper tongue-resting posture, and correcting tongue-thrust swallowing patterns. This approach helps optimize eating, drinking, and articulation skills while minimizing the risk of orthodontic relapse and supporting clearer, more confident speech.

Do you or your child struggle with any of the following issues?

  • "Working with Cynthia has truly changed my quality of life! I went through my tongue tie release with her, and afterwards I learned how to properly chew, drink, and speak. My jaw and mouth no longer are sore at the end of the day, and I was able to let go of many old habits that were causing dry lips, excess saliva, and speech impedents thanks to Cynthia. I now feel so much more confident speaking and even eating in public. I’m extremely grateful for Cynthia’s knowledge, patience, and support through this journey!"
