Meet the Owner

Denise Lowe, M.A., CCC-SLP
is a Minnesota licensed and ASHA certified Speech Language Pathologist. She completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders from St. Cloud State University and received her Master of Arts degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Minnesota-Duluth in 2001. For over 23 years, Denise has worked as a Speech Language Pathologist, gaining extensive experience with hundreds of clients who have diverse needs and diagnoses. Denise has worked in the public school setting as well as in the private setting. She is passionate about connecting with clients and their families. With a unique ability to bond with her clients, she creates plans that are both attainable and focused, all while ensuring a bit of laughter along the way! Denise's goal is to provide comprehensive, effective, and client-centered therapy that is evidence-based and enjoyable.
Along with being an SLP, Denise is also certified in Neuro Emotional Technique (NET). NET is a scientifically proven method to help people move through difficult or stuck emotions. This technique has helped thousands of people overcome fears and emotionally charged memories related to trauma, social anxiety, and even physical pain that can negatively impact future growth and development. NET is a non-invasive, clinically proven method designed to change brain physiology and help us function at optimal levels. While the person remains fully awake and conscious, the technique targets the body’s subconscious blocks to healing. This unique combination is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced trauma, anxiety, or emotional challenges that manifest in physical ways, such as speech difficulties or orofacial myofunctional disorders, including jaw pain and discomfort. Denise's capacity to navigate these complexities ensures that therapy addresses not just the symptoms but the root causes of the issue, fostering resilience, confidence, and personal growth alongside improved communication skills.
Denise is also trained in Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders (OMD). OMD focuses on the re-education, stimulation and strengthening exercises to help increase the overall function of the oral mechanism including proper tongue placement, oral resting postures, dentition and speech sounds. Denise’s unique approach to motor speech sounds along with her training in Myofunctional Therapy, help clients of all ages work through difficult speech patterns.
