A Sounding Therapy will be permanently closing July 17, 2026
Hello! I'm Bethany Renstrom, a licensed and certified Speech-Language Pathologist and the owner of A Sounding Therapy. I earned my master's degree from the University of Northern Iowa in 2007 and have experience working with children in various settings, including hospitals, private practices, homes, and schools. My expertise includes articulation, language, Apraxia, Autism, AAC, hearing impairments, American Sign Language, Down Syndrome, ADHD, Orofacial Myology, and Developmental Delay. What I cherish most about my role is witnessing the joy in children when they master new skills. I aim to empower them by showing that they are capable of anything, equipping them with the skills and confidence to become effective communicators.
