WELCOME!

Empowering parents and professionals to nurture and grow confident communicators — one connection at a time!

Welcome! I am Marisa Whitman M.S. SLP-CCC. I’m a speech-language pathologist and a mom, helping you bridge the gap between what research says and what real life looks like. I have been a board certified and licensed Speech Pathologist and communication expert for over 20 years.

Mission

To empower parents and professionals to build confident communicators through everyday connection, language, and play — using real-life strategies grounded in child development science.

Vision

A world where every parent feels capable and confident supporting their child’s communication — no jargon, no guilt, just connection.

Brand Promise

Real tools. Real connection. Real growth.

I share my knowledge, strategies and tips for early speech and language development as well as offering workshops, courses and small group, weekly sessions to support families, like yours, in developing your innate ability to make EARLY connection and communication EASY!
