Welcome to our Practice

Welcome to Dallas Reading and Language Services, our special speech therapy clinic where we help children experience success, in school and in life! At DRLS we “Embrace the Amazing” in every Child! Our Speech Language Therapists passionately help clients accept their gifts, as well as develop tools and skills needed to move through their challenges.

As speech therapists, we know that children with speech language delays and disorders are at a higher risk of having learning difficulties. Working directly with reading and written language, within a hierarchy alongside functional goals, is the missing piece that can give these kids a way to get caught up, and to keep up in school as their progress generalizes to stronger academic language skills.

Dallas Reading and Language Services is a special training ground, where we all are discovering how to more deeply embrace a “whole child intervention” practice, with results that are at times no less then astonishing.

Testimonials

Before we met Ms. Betzen, Jaime was only talking a little, but we couldn't understand him. He was in second grade and not reading at all. After he started therapy he began reading, we started to understand his words, and he began to talk a lot! He didn't fight with us and helped around the house more. “In third grade he went from an all special-ed class to a regular class. He worked with Rachel Betzen for three more years and got caught up in school. Jaime is now in eleventh grade at the Science and Engineering Magnet, doing very well, and plans to go to college. We will never forget Rachel and what she did for Jaime and our family.

Great place and great staff. All are very kind and caring. Started taking my son due to speech delay. And believe when I say Mrs Rachel is a miracle worker. She is patient and kind and now hearing my son pronounce words clearly is just heaven sent. Thank you for working with Isaac and helping him get where he should be. I will be forever grateful!
