Hello! My name is Meridith and I have been a speech-language pathologist in Ohio for 11 years. I have always had a passion for working with children. It is so exciting to help them meet new milestones and watch them succeed! One of my biggest goals is to help them not only succeed in the classroom, but to learn functional language skills which will help them build friendships, family relationships, and enjoy and engage in their everyday lives. I have experience working with children ages 3-12 with a variety of speech language delays and disorders. Over the years I have worked in elementary and middle school settings as well as outpatient rehabilitation. These experiences have given me extensive knowledge in developing and interpreting Evaluation Team Reports and Individualized Education Plans. If you are interested in continuing your child's speech and language services over the summer or adding to their school year services, I can offer a seamless transition with your child's school based services. I have training in LAMP communication systems for AAC device users and have worked with many children over the years with LAMP WFL on their iPads as well as dedicated communication devices. I have an interest in treating speech sound disorders and am a PROMPT-trained SLP. This allows me to use a tactile approach to help physically guide a child to correctly move his/her jaw, lips, and tongue to form words and to assist children with a variety of speech sound production disorders. I look forward to working with you to create tailored therapy plans to help your child succeed!
