Meet Ms Kenda
Hello, I'm Kenda Schlueter, speech therapist and owner of Waseca Integrated Therapy Hub. I have been a Speech Language Pathologist for 13 years, and have experience in both the private and educational settings. When I am not hanging out with your kiddos, I can usually be found spending time with my family outdoors.... we love hiking, biking, and all things sports. I am passionate about providing children with the communication skills they need in order to develop and maintain relationships and to be active learners in their daily lives. I am so excited for the opportunity to collaborate with other local professionals to develop children’s speech, language, and social skills through play, and to support them and their families every step of the way at WITH.

MEET BAUER
Hi, I’m Bauer! Ms Kenda’s hockey-loving family named me this in the middle of 2022 when I joined her at WITH. I am a happy Goldendoodle who loves kiddos and helping out with therapy sessions! Did you know that studies have shown that interacting with animals like me can help reduce anxiety and depression, and positively impact motivation, engagement, and sense of security and emotional support during therapy sessions? I’m the perfect addition to these sessions, because I love hanging out with the kiddos and helping them feel more calm and self-confident. I know that therapy sessions can be very challenging, but I have a special bond with my kiddos and I help to make learning playful and fun!
