Licensed SLP for Speech, Reading & Dyslexia Support

Shelly Ann S.

I am a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist with a Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology/Communication Disorders and over 15 years of experience supporting children and adults with speech, language, communication, and learning needs. I hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and am licensed in Florida.

My tutoring background includes five years as a Reading Clinician with Lindamood-Bell, where I provided intensive one-on-one and small-group reading intervention to students with reading, spelling, comprehension, and language-learning difficulties. I have experience using structured literacy and multisensory approaches to support phonemic awareness, sound-symbol relationships, word reading, spelling, and reading comprehension.

As an SLP, I bring additional expertise in speech sound development, articulation, phonological processing, oral language, vocabulary, and language comprehension. This is especially helpful for students whose reading or spelling challenges may be connected to speech sound errors, weak phonological awareness, language weaknesses, dyslexia, hyperlexia, or other learning differences.

I have worked with preschoolers, school-age children, adolescents, and adults across school, medical, home-based, telepractice, and private tutoring/intervention settings. My sessions are individualized based on the student’s current skills, learning profile, and goals. I use structured practice, guided support, parent communication, and home practice recommendations to help students build stronger speech, reading, spelling, and communication skills.
