Transform Your Child's Communication Skills

Is your child struggling to express themselves effectively?

Don't Let Communication Barriers Hold Your Child Back!

Confused?

Feel like you're fumbling in the dark?

Learning to speak can feel like a mystery — but it doesn’t have to! I give you doable, tailored, bite-sized steps that fit into playtime, bath time, or breakfast… so helping your child talk becomes more natural, obvious and fun.

Afraid?

Fearful that you’ll make it worse or say the “wrong” thing?

You’re not alone — so many parents feel that way. When you care so much, it’s easy to second-guess yourself. You can lay aside that fear knowing you are in expert care. Your confidence will grow as you watch progress, so there is no need for guilt or guessing.

Worried?

Concern about their future

Totally normal. When words feel stuck, it’s easy to imagine the worst — but the early strategic boost can spark big changes and set them up for learning and academic success, confidence, and emotional wellbeing.

Stressed?

Too many contradicting voices coming at you

There are many options. I can help you weed through the information overload and give you small easy steps to make the difference you seek.

Success Stories

Donny and Karina Rowles

"Dinalynn has been phenomenal for us as parents. She’s helped us look at our girls behavior differently. She’s helped us see them as the age-appropriate “explorers” and boundary-pushers that they are designed to be at their age. Dinalynn has helped us think differently about how to pay attention to our kids, how to respond in healthier and more fruitful ways. She’s got us thinking now about how to work with our girls to help them become the kind of adults we hope they’ll be someday – and that is absolutely HUGE. We can’t recommend Dinalynn highly enough – we’d refer her to our closest friend.

“I’m a former teacher and my 3-year-old son was having difficulty pronouncing his “F” sound. I had tried all the typical things that they would try in a school setting, however, nothing was working to help him and he was growing increasingly frustrated and more difficult to correct without a meltdown. I knew that he wasn’t far enough behind as a whole to qualify for speech services in a school setting until he got further behind which was not the goal. A friend recommended Dinalynn and from our first meeting my husband and I felt confident that she would be able to help us help him. She met with us weekly as that worked best for our family. There were a lot of changes that we, as parents, needed to make, emphasizing the positive and changing our approach to speech itself. Our son’s confidence grew and his speech has grown and corrections are no longer a meltdown waiting to happen but rather just something we can mention in passing. He has also begun self-correcting to achieve the accurate sound and be understood. Dinalynn saw where our son was and taught us small changes and built upon each step until it became a foundational building block, something we just did as second nature. Her knowledge of speech is incredible and I’m always learning more every session. Together we are helping our son succeed. She created a partnership and emphasized that she is helping us become better parents to help our son, and he was able to learn from us after we were taught the skills. My husband and I strongly recommend Dinalynn, not only for the growth and change we've seen in our son the last few months, but for the things we've learned and implemented that will go forward into our grandchildren’s lives. This isn't just a class for our son for his now, but for our family as a generational blessing. ”

“I went to Dinalynn when fear was ruling my life. She taught me the mantra “Speak Truth, No Fear” which has served me over and over in my life. I learned to deal with my fear and make productive use of the time and energy, even in illness. She encouraged me to be BRAVE, and I did what I was scared of! I learned about boundaries, to speak up for myself, ask questions of others, and to choose carefully who I will trust. I was able to be myself. I learned that I can trust her to be kind and honest, without judgement. I learned it was okay to be quiet and that I don’t have to fix things. I went Dancing in the rain not caring who was watching! Now, I know I CAN. ”
