Speech with Shelly

About me: <p>Hi, I’m Shelly, an <strong>ASHA-certified and state-licensed speech-language pathologist (CCC-SLP)</strong> with nearly 30 years of experience supporting communicators from preschool through adulthood. I’ve worked in public schools from PreK through high school and also serve school-aged children and adults in private practice.</p><p>I’m a play-based SLP who creates low-prep, high-engagement therapy materials designed to make sessions easier and more effective. My resources include embedded visual and auditory supports and consistent, predictable structures across themes.</p><p>As the parent of a multimodal communicator with severe apraxia, I design every activity with accessibility, flexibility, and real-life communication in mind. I believe communication begins with connection, intention, and play.</p><p><strong>2020–21 Governor’s Educator of the Year Nominee</strong></p><p>Proud mom of a future SLP—my daughter is following in my footsteps!</p><p><strong>Education:</strong> Holy Cross • Syracuse University • UConn</p><p><strong>R.
