Meet Our Team….
Welcome to Rozy’s Speech Garden – where compassionate care, meets clinical expertise.
Rosalee Hammons, M.S., CCC-SLP Owner, Rozy’s Speech Garden
I’m Rosalee Hammons, M.S., CCC-SLP – though most people just call me Rozy! I’m the proud owner and founder of this private practice based right here in North Denton, where I also live with my two amazing teenage daughters and husband. Like many of the families I work with, my days are full of carpools, after-school sports, and the beautiful chaos that comes with raising teens – and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I earned both my undergraduate and graduate degrees in Speech-Language Pathology from the University of North Texas, completing my master’s in 2011. Since then, I’ve been fortunate to build a rich and diverse career helping children and adults across all stages of life, find their voices, improve communication, and regain vital skills.
