Testimonials
While reading, I had the welcome feeling
that Melissa was already on my side,
coaching and rooting for me each step
of the way, as she has done so clearly
for other SLPs. I could feel [her] with me,
directly but gently probing with insightful
questions, then encouraging me as I
recognized the new insights that I gained.
This SLP Life will help you to ﬁnd your
strengths and gifts as you stay true to
yourself and continue your professional
and personal growth.

Melissa oﬀers many tools and strategies
to help us ask important questions of
ourselves, and she gently guides us to
understanding how the answers to those
questions can inform our decisions and
success.

practitioner facing a personal or professional challenge, or a department head
