Kelly Vess's work was first introduced to me by my SIL who is an SLP. I am a parent of (currently) young children. Kelly's book was incredibly informative and the corresponding video content that it came with gave real, easy to understand and easy to implement techniques that exceed almost every parenting book I have ever read. Even though I am not an SLP and cannot understand all of the professional content, her work has benefited me greatly already. Her research benefits professional therapists and parents alike!

The love and excitement that she has for her research and the children she is helping comes through in her voice. I highly recommend reading her book and adding her podcast to that content. It is so good and I am so well informed!
