ABOUT THE GUEST

Lindsey is the owner and creator of Speechy Things, LLC. She specializes in the /R/ sound and currently sees a small private caseload of “R kids.” Lindsey knows exactly how it feels to feel stuck and dread the /R/. Using her own clinical experience and a ridiculous amount of research, Lindsey now shares every tip and trick she possibly can help other SLPs break through barriers and “Rock the R.” She strives to ensure that every therapy material, speaking engagement, and training video provided by Speechy Things is informative, evidence-based, and even, dare we say, fun. On a personal note, Lindsey believes in progress over perfection, dancing like no one is watching, and, above all, free shipping.
