Lauren Gumpert

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

Accepts 22 insurance plans

Hi! I’m Lauren. I became a speech-language pathologist because I want to help individuals with communication differences to see themselves beyond their diagnosis and live up to their potential. I was inspired by my dad, who has a stutter and is now the CEO of the Louisiana Hospital Association.

My clinical experience spans the private practice and school settings. Additionally, I have experience treating individuals with Parkinson's disease and have taken extensive coursework in fluency disorders.

I approach therapy with a holistic and client-centered style. I prioritize functional outcomes and client empowerment to help each person build confidence, independence, and lifelong self-advocacy skills.
