A Note From Amanda-2.jpg

Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy

Myofunctional therapy takes a root-cause approach to addressing oral muscle patterns that impact daily function. This therapy focuses on improving how the muscles of the mouth, face, and airway work together to support clear speech, healthy swallowing, nasal breathing, and restful sleep.

We offer structured myofunctional therapy packages, including flexible payment options, for individuals who benefit from therapy but do not qualify for insurance-based services.

Our Approach

At Salt & Light, we believe care should feel:

  • Supportive — families are never navigating concerns alone

  • Collaborative — working alongside caregivers and professionals

  • Intentional — recommendations based on individual needs

  • Root-Focused — addressing underlying patterns, not just symptoms

Our goal is meaningful progress that lasts beyond the therapy room.

Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Amanda — founder and lead speech-language pathologist at Salt & Light.

 

I’m passionate about helping individuals and families feel informed, supported, and confident as they navigate speech, communication, and myofunctional concerns.

Care here is thoughtful, individualized, and always rooted in compassion.

“She is patient, encouraging, and knows just how to make him feel comfortable..."

​Miss Amanda has been absolutely wonderful with my son. He has a tongue tie and has struggled with pronouncing certain letters, but since working with her, he has made so much progress. She is patient, encouraging, and knows just how to make him feel comfortable while helping him grow in his speech. We are so grateful for the difference she has made in his confidence and communication.

~S. Willis, Parent
