A lisp can seem like a small thing—until a child feels misunderstood, frustrated, or hesitant to speak up. In this episode, Stephanie Schneider, MS, CCC-SLP, is joined by speech-language pathologist Jorden Beckman, MS, CCC-SLP, to explore how speech therapy helps kids reshape habits, build clearer speech, and feel more confident communicating.

They explain the difference between frontal and lateral lisps, when parents should pay closer attention, and what therapy looks like step by step. From assessments to progress at home, this episode offers guidance grounded in expertise and encouragement for families looking for answers.
