Jacqueline Scuderi

Hello! I’m Jacqueline. I became a speech-language pathologist (SLP) because I wanted a career where I could make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. I was especially drawn to working directly with children in one-on-one or small group settings to support their communication development. I love how therapy can be engaging and fun for kids, where they’re playing, laughing, and still making real progress toward their goals.

What also appealed to me was the variety of settings and populations to work with. Whether I’m working with children or helping adults improve their communication for daily life, I find it incredibly rewarding to support others in expressing themselves and connecting with the world around them. I have worked in clinical settings such as public elementary schools (kindergarten-6th grade) and home-based early intervention. I’ve completed continuing education courses to strengthen my knowledge in key areas of speech-language pathology, particularly those relevant to my clinical interests. These include trainings on childhood language development, augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), feeding and swallowing, and supporting gestalt language processors.

I would describe my clinical style as holistic, client-centered, functional, individualized/personalized, family-centric, routines-based, strengths-based, and rooted in client empowerment to create self-advocates.
