Biography

Mary Leonard is a licensed speech-language pathologist who works alongside children with a wide variety of backgrounds and diagnoses.  She started her career 17 years ago, providing fluency therapy, but quickly became interested in pre-linguist skills and the association to late talkers. From early language development to speech sound disorders, she has refined her therapy techniques driven by evidence-based research, child and family buy-in, and experience.
