I’m Emily Madden, M.S., CCC-SLP and I joined Monkey Mouths in 2019. I attended the University of Texas at Austin for undergrad and earned my master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Texas at Dallas. Prior to Monkey Mouths, I worked in home health. I believe every child has a voice and deserves to be heard. I love collaborating with parents to help their child of any ability feel noticed, empowered and heard!

 

In my free time I enjoy travelling, spending time with my dog, Harvey and my husband, Blake.
