Hi! I'm Betsy, a licensed speech-language pathologist and founder of KC Therapy Co. I started KC Therapy Co. because I believe therapy should feel personal, supportive, and centered around what matters most to each individual and family. Whether we're working on communication, feeding, swallowing, cognition, or voice, my goal is simple: to help clients make meaningful progress while feeling understood, encouraged, and empowered every step of the way. I am licensed in both Kansas and Missouri and hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC-SLP) through the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). Throughout my career, I have worked with both children and adults across inpatient rehabilitation hospitals, outpatient medical centers, and community-based settings. These experiences have allowed me to support individuals with a wide range of communication, feeding, swallowing, cognitive, and voice needs while developing a deep appreciation for the unique strengths and goals every person brings to therapy. One of the things I value most is collaboration. I believe the best outcomes happen when therapists, families, caregivers, teachers, physicians, and clients work together as a team. You know yourself or your loved one better than anyone else, and your insights are an essential part of the therapy process. My role is not only to provide evidence-based treatment, but also to listen, guide, educate, and partner with you along the way. To provide the highest quality care, I have completed advanced training in several specialty areas, including the Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach to Feeding, the McNeill Dysphagia Therapy Program (MDTP), and Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT LOUD). These evidence-based approaches allow me to create individualized treatment plans that are both clinically effective and practical for everyday life. At KC Therapy Co., I provide mobile and teletherapy services throughout Johnson County and the greater Kansas City metro area. By bringing therapy directly to homes, schools, daycares and community settings, I can support clients in the environments where they naturally communicate, learn, eat, work, and connect with others. My focus is always on functional skills that carry over beyond our sessions and make a meaningful difference in daily life. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter, traveling, cooking, and making memories with family and friends. The relationships I have with my own family remind me every day how important trust, compassion, and support are when facing challenges. That's why I strive to treat every client and family the way I would want my own loved ones to be treated—with kindness, honesty, patience, and individualized care. I consider it a privilege to be part of each family's journey, and I am committed to providing the guidance, encouragement, and expertise needed to help clients reach their goals. Whether you're seeking answers, guidance, or therapy services, I look forward to getting to know you, understanding your goals, and partnering with you to help you or your loved one thrive.
