Kjirsten Keetch, MS, CCC-SLP
Hi, I'm Kjirsten! I live in Utah County with my husband and three kids, and I've been a pediatric speech therapist for 9+ years. I have a master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology and love to work with parents to help their children rapidly improve their communication skills. I pride myself on therapy that is rooted in high-quality research and in developing great relationships with my students and their families. I specialize in speech sound disorders, including Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) and phonological impairments.

Mackenzie Hymas, MS, CCC-SLP
Hi, I'm Mackenzie! I'm very passionate about being a speech and language pathologist and cherish the ability to serve and work with families to help bring about the joy and gift of communication. I graduated with both my undergraduate and master’s degrees from Utah State University. During my graduate program, I completed specialized training in Listening and Spoken Language (LSL), helping children with hearing impairments learn to listen through their devices and acquire spoken language. This particular area of the field is what drove me to pursue this career, as my mom is profoundly deaf. Due to the hard work of dedicated professionals, I am able to communicate comfortably with my mom and she, with others. I am passionate about working with the pediatric population including, but not limited to, early language delays and articulation disorders. I grew up in a small town in Northern Wyoming and love spending time with my husband, singing, and playing pickleball and volleyball.
Clara Allred, MS, CCC-SLP
Hi, I'm Clara Allred. I grew up in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. I have a personal history of childhood apraxia of speech, which brings a unique perspective to my therapy. I earned my bachelor's in Communication Disorders from BYU and my master's in Speech-Language Pathology from The University of North Dakota. My areas of expertise include: early intervention, alternative and augmentative communication (AAC), gestalt language processing (GLP) hand helping those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). I am passionate about neurodiversity-affirming therapy. In my spare time, I figure skate and spend time with my cats, husband and twin girls.
Lauren Davies, MS, CCC-SLP
Hi, I'm Lauren! I have always enjoyed spending time with children so I knew I wanted to choose a career that allowed me to make a positive impact in little ones' lives. I graduated with my Master's degree in Speech Language Pathology in 2021 and have been working as a licensed SLP ever since. I specialize in early intervention language development (0-3 years) and speech sound disorders between the ages 3-8. I love my job! Outside of being a speech therapist, I have a husband and two young kids that are my world. We enjoy spending time outdoors or cuddling up together for family movie nights.
