ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi, I’m Dina
I’ve been an SLP for the past 20 years, treating infants and toddlers with feeding and swallowing disorders. My work led me to taking a deep dive into helping children and adults breathe better, sleep better, and live better.
I work with children and adults in my private practice, and outside of the therapy room, I teach, mentor, and support SLPs and other professionals. I earned a second master’s degree in Educational Leadership and multiple certifications so I could deepen my understanding and skills.
So many talented SLPs are frustrated and stuck because grad school never taught us the importance of uncovering the root cause of things like malocclusions, articulation deficits, and tongue thrust.
This course is a culmination of years of studying, clinical experience, mentoring SLPs, and continued education.
You will also have the opportunity to learn from other specialists and doctors, including:
Dr. Zaghi, ENT Surgeon, Sleep Medicine Expert Log Angeles, CA
Dr. Kundel, Holistic Dentist in Stamford, CT
Dr. Mary Bourke, Chiropractor, SOT certified Craniopath, and CEO of Myo Munchee
Dr. Victor and Sydney Avis, The Airway Evolution Foundation
