About

At Verse Therapy, we're dedicated to making quality speech therapy accessible for everyone by empowering speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to launch and grow their own independent practices. We help therapists focus on what they do best—providing compassionate, personalized care—by taking care of the administrative tasks that often lead to burnout. Through thoughtful marketing and partnerships with care organizations like rehab centers, we connect SLPs with individuals who need their expertise. Our AI-enabled back office streamlines insurance processing, scheduling, and documentation, reducing non-therapy overhead. We're now live in 10 states with over 35 dedicated therapists and are in-network with leading insurance providers, making it easier for clients to receive the support they need.

Danielle YoesepFounder

Grew up interested in science, always thinking I'd become a doctor (immigrant parents lol) but realized in university that practicing medicine actually wasn't the way I wanted to make my impact. Stayed in science, wanted to be on the cutting edge, did some research developing platform technologies that enable the synthesis of novel molecules. I helped spin a company out based on the work and built it up from (mostly) scratch. We ended up getting acquired, and now I'm doing it all over again :)
