Welcome to MarvelMyo & Speech! I am the owner, Katelyn Spencer, M.S., CCC-SLP, AOMT-C, and look forward to meeting you. I started MarvelMyo & Speech after being a speech therapist in the school system and seeing how little our kids were being given appropriate services and the lack of progress compelled me to want to help families with navigating the overwhelming space that is of seeing specialists. I personally have dealt with breathing, sleep, speech and feeding issues and have experienced the frustrations of trying to address root cause for why my pains were evident. I chose the word MARVEL to represent my office because I want patients to know that they are getting the utmost of care. I am married to my sweet husband and we have a boston terrier named Mahomie of whom was given the namesake after none other than Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs! I absolutely love baking and playing word games (your typical speech therapist appreciations)! I am a board certified Speech-Language Pathologist, Feeding Specialist, and Certified Oromyofunctional Therapist through the Academy of Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy. I am a four-time award American Speech-Language Hearing Association winner for continued education beyond 200 hours. I hold my Clinical Certification of Competence through the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association and am a licensed and registered member of the Texas Speech-Language and Hearing Association. I am currently working on my doctorate to further help patients suffering from tongue ties and mouth breathing habits to hopefully increase open communication about the topics and improve patient health. As a speech-language pathologist, Katelyn has worked in various settings: public education, private practice, home health, in-patient, and outpatient rehab for children and adults. She has evaluated and treated a broad range of speech and language disorders, including speech sound disorders, apraxia of speech, feeding, swallowing, expressive, receptive, and social language disorders, stuttering, voice, and myofunctional disorders. She has worked with special populations such as individuals with down syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism, hearing impairments, ADHD, TBI, epilepsy disorders, hydrocephalus, and more. Areas of intense study include sensory-motor feeding issues, orofacial myology, and swallowing. She has specific training for feeding using the CAN-EAT approach and Lori Overland Feeding Therapy and Hallie Bulkin’s Feed the PEDS course. She has experience with Beckman Oral Motor and the S.O.S. Feeding approach. She is a Level 3 Talk Tools Therapist for Oral Motor and Feeding Therapy. She is trained in PROMPT (Prompts for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets), which focuses on the motor movement for forming sounds into words. She has also taken coursework through the International Association of Oromyofunctional Therapy (IAOM), The Breathe Institute with Sarah Hornsby, Orofacial Myology Training for Sandra Holtzman (QOM certification track), SimonSaysSpeech, and the Chrysalis TOTS training to address oromyofunctional disorders and how to recognize tongue/lip/cheek tethers. She is on-track to become a Certified Lactation Consultant (CLC) through the Center for Breastfeeding. Katelyn is also trained in Augmentative and Alternative Communication devices (AAC) such as switches, Dynavox, Proloquo2Go app on the iPad, and the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS).

Her coordinated efforts with dentists, orthodontists, ENTs, physical therapists, and chiropractors around the DFW area are to holistically address the needs of patients at any age.

Play is the foundation for learning through which I instill meaningful connections and foster problem-solving skills. Coupled with a certification in family trauma, my extensive knowledge and expertise in the neurology of play and parent coaching presents itself as a unique opportunity. Through my work with children and families, I focus on a dynamic approach, involving the internal state and external environment. I capture the individuality of the family unit, designing a therapeutic plan to build confidence and empower lasting change. The philosophy of my practice takes a holistic viewpoint to understand the whole child, laying a foundation for future success. I specialize in treating children with autism, attention difficulties, behavior challenges, language learning disabilities and picky eating in a supportive setting. When it comes to feeding, mealtime is truly special. It highlights a child's relationship with food, encouraging exploration, positive role models, and skill proficiency. Nutrition counseling further considers environmental attributes, facilitating education and self-efficacy. I provide parent coaching sessions and work closely with educators and other professionals to increase awareness, ensure consistency, and carryover invaluable tools. My goal is to empower parents and caregivers with strategies and resources. I welcome the child and adult into the therapeutic space because, as partners, we can achieve so much more!

Neurofeedback is direct training of brain function, by which the brain learns to function more efficiently. We observe the brain in action from moment to moment. We show that information back to the person. And we reward the brain for changing its own activity to more appropriate patterns. This is a gradual learning process. It applies to any aspect of brain function that we can measure. Neurofeedback is also called EEG Biofeedback, because it is based on electrical brain activity, the electroencephalogram, or EEG. Neurofeedback is training in self-regulation. It is simply biofeedback applied to the brain directly. Self-regulation is a necessary part of good brain function. Self-regulation training allows the system (the central nervous system) to function better. Neurofeedback addresses problems of brain dis-regulation. These happen to be numerous.  6965 San Luis Ave, Atascadero • Anxiety/Depression Spectrum • Attention Deficits • Behavior Disorders • Various Sleep Disorders • Headaches & Migraines • Traumatic Brain Injury • PMS & Emotional Disturbances • History of Stroke • Seizures • Autism Spectrum • Cerebral Palsy • Optimal performance in high stress jobs and sports

Parents of children with a speech/articulation concern: -Are you feeling frustrated because you can not understand your child when he speaks? -Is your child also frustrated because he doesn't feel understood and can't clearly express what he wants? -Has another professional told you that your child will outgrow his speech problem, but it doesn't seem to be getting better? -Is your child becoming more withdrawn because he knows he can't say certain words correctly? -Is your child 8 yrs old or older and still can't say R, S, TH, or L words? -Are other kids starting to notice that your child speaks differently? -Do you have to interpret your child's speech to other people? Adults: Do you have a regional or foreign accent that you would like to change? Are you feeling insecure at work or in social situations because of the way you talk? Do you always have to repeat yourself? Do you have difficulties being understood over the phone? Do you shy away from group talks or meetings because of the way you talk? Do you let other people talk for you at work or social gatherings? Do you feel your accent or enunciation skills get in the way at work or in social settings? To my potential clients, if you can relate to any or all of the above, I am here to help. Clear communication is essential to all of our relationships, both personal and professional. You don't necessarily have to be the greatest orator like Winston Churchill or John F. Kennedy. But it would be pretty great to be articulate just like them, but on a smaller scale within your tribe or community. Sessions are via tele-therapy only. I am licensed to practice in Colorado and California. So if you are located in these states, feel free to reach out. I offer free 20 minute consultations and we can chat it up and get those questions answered.
