Help Your Team Speak Up With Confidence

Workshops that help professionals communicate clearly, contribute in meetings, and

lead with confidence, without the anxiety that holds them back.

Talented Employees Held Back By Anxiety

Your team knows what they want to say. But in

meetings, presentations, or everyday conversations, something shifts, they hesitate, overthink, or hold

back instead of speaking up. Over time, this shows up as quieter meetings, missed ideas, and employees

who under-contribute relative to what they're capable of.

You may know what you want to say...

But in the moment, something shifts.

- You hesitate

- You overthink

- You second-guess yourself

- You hold back instead of speaking freely

For Adults

This may show up in meetings, conversations, or moments when speaking clearly feels pressured.

Sometimes it feels easier to stay quiet than to find the right words.

Over time, communication can start to feel stressful instead of natural.

What Changes When Communication Feels Easier

When internal pressure begins to ease, communication starts to feel more natural and less overwhelming.

Adults Often Begin To:

- Feel more at ease speaking in conversations/ meetings

- Overthink less before speaking

- Express themselves more naturally in real time

Across All Ages, The Goal Is The Same:

- More ease

- More confidence

- Less internal pressure when communicating

How I Help

Together we work on:

1. Reducing internal anxiety around speaking

2. Building a stronger sense of ease when expressing thoughts

3. Interrupting overthinking and self-doubt patterns

4. Creating more natural, fluid communication experiences

5. Strengthening confidence in every day conversations, school and work.

The goal is not performance.

The goal is comfort, ease and confidence when communicating.

Communication Specialist, Certified Speech-Language Pathologist, Certified Life Coach, 2025 Best Speech Pathologist in Redmond WA, Best of PNW 2024 and 2025.

For more than twenty years, I have worked with children, adolescents and adults supporting communication development and helping them connect more confidently with others.

Many communication challenges are not caused by a lack of ability. They are shaped by what happens internally in the moment someone tries to speak.

Tension. Anxiety. Self-Doubt. Overthinking.

This understanding led me to expand my work beyond traditional communication therapy and into coaching and personal development.

What Makes This Work Different

Most communication support focuses on improving what people say.

My work focuses on what happens inside the person before they even say it.

Communication is often shaped less by skill and more by internal experience - how someone feels in the moment they are trying to express themselves.

When anxiety, self-criticism or overthinking is present, communication becomes harder regardless of capability.

By combining communication science with coaching strategies focused on mindset and internal experience, I help people create lasting change from the inside out.

When internal pressure eases, communication becomes more natural, comfortable and confident.

"I was lucky to have found Jackie Grosse. She took on the challenge of working on my speech. English being my second language, the task was twice as hard! We've made great progress on different sounds, overall articulation and intonation. Jackie is very thorough and knowledgeable. I highly recommend her as a speech therapist!"

"Jackie is caring, knowledgeable, and patient. Sessions with Jackie were productive and homework was clearly communicated and manageable. I appreciated that she took an interest in my son and coached him on giving a speech in front of an audience (pace, annunciation, clarity, volume, breathing, etc.). Great skills to have as a young kid! I highly recommend Jackie’s expertise and services ..."
