About Melinda

I am a passionate speech-language pathologist with over 30 years of experience working with individuals of all ages and abilities. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences at Texas Tech University and my master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology at Vanderbilt University. Since then, I have worked in rehabilitation units, acute care hospitals, neonatal intensive care units (NICU), nursing homes, home health agencies, public schools, and therapy clinics.

​

Today, I combine my experience from all of these settings to serve clients with orofacial myofunctional, speech, and executive functioning disorders. My goal is to make specialized therapy both accessible and convenient. All services are available virtually for clients throughout Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. Additionally, for those in and around Evergreen, Colorado, I offer in-person sessions at my office and limited in-home visits for individuals in the nearby areas. I keep things engaging, personal, and focused on progress, while also making sure therapy fits into your busy life. 

​

I believe that authenticity forms the best therapeutic relationships, and I enjoy taking time to get to know my clients. I like to spend my free time exploring my new hometown of Evergreen, CO, skiing, hiking, ice skating, painting, and enjoying life with my husband and our dog, Gryfinn.
