Hey, nice to see you here. I am Mayke Drost and I am the owner of Mondeling Logopedie.
You probably came to this site because you are curious about who I am and what I do. Well, we already have something in common, because I am also very curious. That's why I initially chose to become a journalist. For 10 years I was an editor, side-kick, and voice-over at regional, public, and commercial radio stations. Super fun! But because I was curious about what else I could do, I decided to change course and go back to school.
I had already experienced the effect of speech therapy myself; at the age of 14, I was referred to the speech therapist by the orthodontist because of an incorrect swallow. That strange swallow was hindering the orthodontic treatment. Through exercises with mini-elastics, buttons, applesauce, and cookies from my own speech therapist, Mrs. Frantzen, I learned how to swallow correctly and my muscles got the right balance. How cool is it that you can influence your own treatment at the orthodontist like that?
During my training, I became more fascinated by this treatment method. I delved into it and wanted to specialize further in it. I still do. And every day I learn more. By reading, but especially because no patient is the same.
Because I love singing and through my work at the radio, I know how nice it is to have a pleasant and healthy voice. A voice that can last a little longer and sounds clear. I use my experience in audiovisual media during my treatments and voice workshops for professional speakers. Together with my patients, I like to look for ways to make the voice sound good again.
I am curious about who you are and what I can do for you. Will you send me a message so we can get to know each other quickly? On my site, you can already see how I work, how the treatments are reimbursed, and what the treatments entail.
Best regards,
Mayke
