At The Speech House, LLC, our speech–language pathologists bring play to life. As part of a multidisciplinary team, SLPs provide evidence-based, play-focused therapy to children in a supportive, family-centered private practice setting.

Therapists collaborate closely with occupational therapists through an interdisciplinary model, often co-treating and developing shared goals for communication, sensory-motor, and feeding development. Each clinic features a sensory gym and child-led therapy spaces designed to foster engagement and success.

SLPs evaluate and treat children with articulation and phonology disorders, language delays, autism spectrum disorder, childhood apraxia of speech, and feeding/oral-motor challenges. They coach families, celebrate progress, and contribute to a support group for families of children with ASD, reinforcing the connection between therapy and home life.

We welcome clinicians who value teamwork, creativity, and compassion—along with students and Clinical Fellows eager to learn in a nurturing, collaborative environment. At The Speech House, you’ll make play purposeful and progress joyful every day.
