Brooke Sorrells, M.S. CCC-SLP

Owner

Speech-Language Pathologist

I am the owner of Beyond Speech Therapy. I started More Than Words in July 2022, and I am happy to be serving the Madison/Huntsville area.

I graduated with my Master’s in Speech Language Pathology from the University of South Alabama in 2015 and moved to north Alabama to be closer to my family. After moving here, I fell in love with Huntsville! I initially worked with Restore Therapy services from 2015-2017 in Skilled Nursing Facilities to provide speech therapy services for adults. Here, I specialized in treatment for swallowing, cognition, aphasia, motor speech disorders (such as dysarthria), and aural rehabilitation. I began working with Silver Linings Neurodevelopment in 2017, where I worked primarily with the pediatric population, specializing in speech concerns associated with Autism Spectrum Disorders and ADHD. In 2018, I also provided Early Intervention services for families in our area that qualified, and I loved interacting with and training families in their homes to foster speech and language development with their little ones.

I have a heart for both pediatrics and adult patients, and I look forward to providing therapy services for both in my new clinic.

Loren Batchelor, M.S. CCC-SLP

Speech-Language Pathologist

I have been a speech-language pathologist at Beyond Speech Therapy since July 2024. I am so excited to be a part of the MTW team! Some facts about me:

  • I’m a proud University of South Alabama Alum, with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Speech and Hearing Sciences. Go Jags! 
  • I graduated with my Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology in Spring 2022 from Auburn. War Eagle! 
  • 2022 was the busiest year of my life, as I graduated grad school, moved back to Mobile, began my clinical fellowship, started a new job, and got married. We’ve been in Huntsville for 2 years now and we love it so far!
  • I love the pediatric population and the private practice setting.My intervention interests include articulation, fluency, AAC, ADHD and executive functioning, ASD, and voice; however, I also have experience working with expressive and receptive language, apraxia, phonological awareness, and social aspects of communication.

I continue to choose private practice because I enjoy cultivating professional relationships with both clients and parents! I view parents, children, and myself each as integral teammates in speech and language therapy – working together towards your individual goals and progress. I’m grateful to be a part of your therapy team!

I graduated with my Bachelor’s from Samford University in 2021 and my Master’s from Alabama A&M University in 2023. I completed my Clinical Fellowship in the school setting during the 2023/2024 school year where I worked with a wide age range of students and addressed receptive/expressive language, articulation, AAC training, and communication needs. I have interests in pediatric feeding therapy as well as early language development, and I have training in tongue tie revision exercises/oral motor therapy.
