Your Child's Speech-Language Pathologist

Founder, Speech-Language Pathologist

Amanda started Spring Speech because she saw too many kids getting a narrow slice of therapy when they needed someone looking at the full picture. As a pediatric SLP with advanced training in orofacial myofunctional therapy and feeding, she doesn't just work on how your child talks. She evaluates how they breathe, swallow, and eat, too. Whether your child is a late talker, a picky eater, or struggling with tongue thrust, Amanda builds a plan around the whole child.

Why Families Choose Spring Speech

Specialized care that makes a real difference in your child's communication journey

Specialized Expertise

Specialized Expertise

We catch what others miss. We look beyond speech sounds: breathing, swallowing, feeding, and the connection between them. If previous therapy hasn't clicked, this might be why.

Individualized Treatment

Individualized Treatment

No two kids are the same. Neither are our plans. We evaluate how your child breathes, swallows, eats, communicates, and plays before building anything. The plan fits your child, not the other way around.

Evidence-Based Methods

Evidence-Based Methods

Therapy that works (and your kid actually likes). Everything we do is grounded in research and wrapped in play. Your child won't sit at a desk doing drills. They'll be having too much fun to notice they're working.

Clear Communication

Clear Communication

You'll never wonder what's happening. After every session, you'll know what we worked on, why it mattered, and what to practice at home. Clear updates, honest feedback, every time.

Hear from families who've seen real progress

"Our three-year-old son loved seeing Amanda every single visit. He was always so happy to go to speech. He just thought he was playing, but he was working on the building blocks that would become the foundation for his language. Through her play-based techniques and imaginative play, our son grew over the months he worked with Amanda. As a parent, there is nothing better than waiting in the lobby hearing your child laughing out loud in his sessions."
