We are a small, specialty-trained private practice owned and operated by Rachel Marquardt, a licensed speech-language pathologist who works diligently to stay up to date on best practices in critical, overlooked areas of her profession: infant feeding, orofacial myofunctional therapy, tongue and lip ties, Tummy Time! Method, articulation, and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). While the field of speech language pathology is very broad, we believe in screening our clients during our phone consultations to make sure that we both feel we are the right fit for one another.

We treat our clients in the comfort of their home and out of Rachel’s in-home therapy office. We work closely with families to increase the rate at which our clients can progress toward their goals. We believe the mind, body, and soul are all connected, and when we treat our clients, we consider the whole person and family dynamic every step of the way.

We believe you are the expert of your experience, and we are here to listen to you and guide you to your goals. The last thing we want is to waste your precious time and money, so if there’s ever a point where you or we feel you (or your child) have hit a plateau in therapy, we will do our best to provide you with appropriate referrals.

For Rachel, working with her clients is more than a job but a true calling. Her passion for healthy mouth development, tethered oral tissues, infant feeding, and orofacial myofunctional therapy began when she started connecting the dots to her own health obstacles and journey. She hopes to be the provider and advocate for her families that she needed at an early age.  While Rachel does not claim to be perfect or have all the answers, she is always putting her best foot forward to help her clients.
