Josephine Jimenez

Licensed Speech-Language Pathologist (M.A., CCC-SLP)

Accepts 48 insurance plans

Hi! I’m Josephine, a licensed speech-language pathologist (SLP). I dedicate my work as an SLP to my mother, Myrna Bartolome, who inspired me to pursue this field before she passed away in 2021. Her encouragement sparked a passion for helping others communicate with confidence and connection, and that passion continues to guide my work every day.

I have experience supporting children and adults with a wide range of communication needs in private practice settings. My clinical interests include autism, articulation and phonological disorders, early intervention, preschool and school-age language disorders, fluency, and adult aphasia. I care deeply about supporting each client’s communication skills while also nurturing their social and emotional well-being.

My therapy approach is holistic, individualized, and family-centered. I strive to create sessions that are engaging, supportive, and strengths-based while empowering clients to become confident self-advocates. I also incorporate sensory-integrated and functional strategies to help therapy feel meaningful and successful in everyday life.

Josephine is such a warm and compassionate person, and it shows how she interacted with (my son). She truly has a passion for children’s needs. (My son) and I will miss Josephine as she gave all her loving self and her professional skills to (my son). I found a friend in Josephine and no one can replace her special bond she gave.
