WholeStory Speech helps socially sensitive children express what happened, what felt hard, and what they needed.
We help by building social skills in children while teaching families and educators the skills needed to support them from the sidelines.
Trusted by schools & organizations across the country:
"If telling kids what to do worked, they'd already be doing it."
You’re in the right place if you already know that following a script doesn’t work.
WholeStory helps parents stop chasing behavior and start listening for the story underneath it. When children can tell their WholeStory; share what happened, what they wanted, what got hard, and how they felt, the adults around them can finally offer the right kind of support.
WholeStory is a revolutionary social storytelling framework that brings together mental health and speech pathology.

A research-informed framework that the WholeStory method is based on. It helps children communicate their WholeStory, what happened, what they wanted, what felt hard, and how they felt inside. By replacing scripted social skills with authentic emotional language, children begin accessing the tools to problem solve everyday social situations. Parents learn to create an emotionally safe environment for children to share what’s on their minds and to become their child’s sounding board.
