Hello friends! Today I’m closing out the Team Up Tuesday series with a grateful heart. I’ve had so much fun featuring people who have played such an integral part in my career! While I’m flattered by everyone’s kind write-ups, it’s truly my privilege to be working alongside such a wonderful and supportive community.
Today’s post features a wonderful family that I adore: Steve, Jeanne, and their adorable son Knox!
Jeanne and I (and Knox!) are incredibly grateful for the support, expertise, and compassion that Vanessa has shown Knox throughout his speech therapy journey. From the very beginning, Vanessa built a strong rapport with Knox, making him feel comfortable, confident, and excited to learn. Her sessions are always engaging, thoughtfully planned, and tailored to meet Knox’s individual needs and goals.
What sets Vanessa apart is her ability to combine professional skill with genuine care. She communicates clearly with us as parents, keeps us informed of Knox’s progress, and offers practical strategies we can use at home. We’ve seen tremendous growth in Knox’s speech and language abilities since working with Vanessa, and more importantly, we’ve seen a boost in his self-esteem and willingness to express himself. We’ve had a number of friends and family remark on the progress he has made…thanks to Vanessa!
Vanessa has had a lasting and positive impact on our family. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as Knox’s therapist and would enthusiastically recommend her to any family seeking a dedicated and talented speech-language pathologist.

Thank you to everyone who graciously agreed to be a part of this series. I will be back next week with a new month of blog posts, centered around a recent grant that I applied to. I cannot wait to share it with you!
