Meet Katherine
I’m Katherine Noyes, the founder and owner of Lotus Speech & Wellness, LLC. For more than 15 years, I’ve been helping people navigate changes in communication and thinking.
I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience and Spanish from Colgate University, and my Master’s Degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders from the MGH Institute of Health Professions in Boston (now the Mass General Brigham University of Health Professions). My speech-language pathology career has included inpatient and outpatient medical settings, public schools, and private practice, giving me the opportunity to work with people across a wide range of ages, goals, and life circumstances. I am also the Program Coordinator for the National Aphasia Association.
I completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2020, and the LoveYourBrain Yoga Training for Health Professionals in 2021. This training has shaped the way I think about mindfulness, wellness, and the connection between the mind and body. These perspectives complement my clinical background and allow me to take a holistic approach to my work.
Outside of Lotus Speech & Wellness, I live in southern Maine with my husband, son, and dog Maple. I love spending time with family and friends, being active outdoors, and reading a good book.

Why Lotus Speech & Wellness?
The lotus flower is a symbol often used in the wellness community representing rebirth and resilience. Though the lotus grows in muddy, murky waters, each morning it emerges to greet the sun, blooming into a brilliant flower. The lotus flower is simultaneously delicate and durable, able to survive in the most challenging of conditions.
Sustaining neurological impairments or experiencing communication or cognitive changes can be life-altering. However, my clients demonstrate remarkable resilience and the ability to grow and thrive despite the challenges they may face.
