I’m Catherine Moore, M.A., CCC-SLP, ASDCS; I joined Monkey Mouths in 2022 as a speech-language pathologist and I am the Clinical Director in Fort Worth and Stephenville. I earned my undergraduate and master’s degrees from the University of Houston. Prior to Monkey Mouths, I’ve worked in home health, private practice, hospital and school settings.

Communication is one of the most important life skills and every person should have the opportunity to express their wants, needs and ideas. I enjoy working with my patients and their families to increase skills and work together to carry over skills into their home and community.

In my spare time I enjoy watching baseball, traveling, cooking, baking, gardening and being outdoors.
