MEET SHAINA

Shaina Rafkin M.S. CCC-SLP, CLC
Speech Language Pathologist, Owner

Hi there, I'm Shaina. I'm a passionate speech-language pathologist, pediatric feeding specialist, and orofacial myologist in the greater Pittsburgh area.  After receiving my masters of science in 2017, I pursued additional training in orofacial myology, pediatric feeding therapy, tethered oral tissues, lactation counseling, and craniosacral fascial therapy. This unique knowledge and skill set influences how I assess and treat my clients. It allows me to use a holistic and interdisciplinary approach while searching for the root cause of the issue.  I commonly collaborate with other professionals, such as ENT doctors, dentists, orthodontists, bodywork providers and other therapists . Recognizing the importance of optimal function in the orofacial complex and how it relates to speech, feeding, and breathing has led me on a mission to improve the overall health and wellbeing of as many people as I can help!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

“When I went to an airway specialist dentist and found out I had a tongue tie, he referred me to Shaina for myofunctional therapy to accompany my frenectomy. I didn't know why it was so important, but now that I've completed Shaina's program I would say it's crucial. With Shaina's help, I speak more clearly, swallow effortlessly, and have better tongue posture. My TMJ pain is nearly gone, and I don't choke on food any more. I slept well before, so I was surprised when I started sleeping even better. I didn't know all these things could be improved, and I'm forever grateful for Shaina's help. She is kind, easy to understand, and I always feel like she is cheering me on. Myofunctional therapy with Ameera Therapy is worth the investment!”
