Your expertise as a speech language pathologist has truly transformed my professional journey and I am forever grateful. I was so lucky to be able to attend a course that provided both dental hygiene and speech language pathology perspectives. I possessed a wealth of theoretical knowledge but struggled to apply it effectively. Your ability to bridge the gap between knowledge from lectures and practical hands-on use is truly remarkable. I learned invaluable techniques to enhance my interactions with patients and provide them excellent care. Thank you for being an exceptional mentor and for paving the way for the next generation of professionals in this field.

I am extremely grateful for my mentorship experience with Karen Masters. After completing the myofunctional training course, I was overwhelmed by the idea of putting this new knowledge to use without guidance from an experienced myofunctional therapist. Karen is an expert in the field and provided detailed answers to all my questions. It was extremely helpful to talk through cases with her and receive guidance from assessment through treatment. She was able to offer creative solutions to help my clients overcome specific challenges and provided the functional “why” behind many of the exercises that I had learned. I am really enjoying watching my clients improve through the use of myofunctional therapy and could not have done it without Karen!
