Speech Language Pathologist - Beth Ingram Therapy Services

​2001 - 2011

 

​As an SLP working for Beth Ingram Therapy Services I worked in the private practice, public school and private school settings.  I was responsible for completing comprehensive diagnostic assessments and developing and carrying out therapy goals and objectives for children with receptive/expressive language deficits, neurological deficits, articulation deficits, fluency disorders, developmental delays, Pervasive Developmental Delay and Autism Spectrum Disorder. While working in the public and private schools, I was responsible for developing and implementing the use of a variety of assistive communication strategies and devices for students with limited verbal abilities. Working together with teachers to develop visual strategies to assist students with language delays work as independently as possible. As a member of an Interdisciplinary Team I worked with Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, Behavior Analysts, families and school staff to develop Individual Education Plan goals and objectives.
