About OroGlow
A Practice Rooted in Purpose
OroGlow was born from a deep shift in both heart and practice. After nearly a decade working in inpatient rehab and acute care—specializing in oropharyngeal dysphagia and critical care—I began to feel the weight of burnout and PTSD following the COVID-19 pandemic.
In treating critically ill patients, I realized that we were often addressing surface-level symptoms rather than true root causes. Patients returned again and again with the same issues. That realization became the turning point.
I began exploring myofunctional therapy and integrative approaches—therapies that ask “why” instead of just “what.” Since then, I’ve completed over 70 hours of myofunctional training, along with coursework in feeding therapy, Buteyko Breathing, and tethered oral tissues (TOTS).
At OroGlow, I bring together clinical expertise and compassionate care to help both children and adults breathe better, swallow more efficiently, speak clearly, and thrive. My approach is not just about diagnosis—it’s about lasting change built on collaboration, function, and full-body wellness.
Hi, I'm Tricia — SLP, feeding therapist, professional nose-breathing advocate.
I'm a Speech-Language Pathologist (MS, CCC-SLP), with a background in acute care, ICU, trauma, and FEES swallow studies before I found my real passion: getting to the root cause instead of just managing symptoms.
I'm a Certified Pediatric Feeding Therapist (CPFT™) and have completed extensive training in orofacial myofunctional therapy through Make The Connection & AOMT courses, TalkTools® Oral Placement Therapy, the SOS Approach to Feeding, and Buteyko breathing method — plus ongoing continuing education to stay sharp on airway health, tongue-tie, and feeding therapy.
At OroGlow, I treat all ages: babies, kids, and adults — snoring, voice/speech concerns, mouth breathing, tongue-tie, picky/problem feeding, you name it. No insurance hoops, no rushed 15-minute visits. Just real answers, a plan, and probably a fascia tangent you didn't ask for.
Oh, and my dog Mila? Basically co-owner.
Born and raised in Abilene, TX, Tricia still calls it home. She’s a proud Wylie High School grad, attended Texas Tech University (wreck ‘em!), and earned her master’s degree from Eastern New Mexico University.
When she’s not serving clients, you’ll find her sipping coffee, crafting, or hanging out with her best friend and dog, Mila. She never turns down a game night and rarely misses a Texas Tech football game.
Her work—and her life—are guided by connection, community, and care.
