I’m Kallie Hartman, MS, CCC-SLP and I joined Monkey Mouths in 2023 as a speech-language pathologist and I am the Assistant Clinical Director of Fort Worth.  I earned my undergraduate degree from Penn State University and my master’s degree from Bloomsburg University. Prior to Monkey Mouths, my experience included working in home health, private practice and school settings.

I believe in a holistic, child and family centered approach to therapy. Therapy is most successful when a child is motivated and engaged. I use play to make therapy fun, while targeting functional goals. Parent engagement is also extremely important to a child’s success, and I love to incorporate parent coaching strategies to help parents learn how to best support their child’s progress.

In my free time I enjoy staying active, traveling and hiking with my husband. I am a “foodie”, so I also love to do a lot of cooking and baking.
