About me

Hi! I'm Meaghan. I became a speech-language pathologist because communication is essential in life. We all have the desire to communicate. When I discovered this field, I was immediately drawn in to this diverse world. I received my license in April 2008. I hold a Teacher Of Students with Speech and Language Disabilities (TSSLD) certificate, which has allowed me to work in various school settings. I have taken PECS training to learn more about augmentative communication. I have experience working in early intervention, preschools, elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, private practice, clinics, and home care. I have worked with clients from ages 9 months to 73 years. I have extensive experience working with children and adults with developmental disabilities such as autism spectrum disorder in schools, day habilitation sites, and residential group homes. My career allows me to share skills and techniques as well as continuously learn them. My clinical style is holistic and collaborative with family and caretakers. I believe in working together to develop a treatment plan that is functional and personalized.

Meaghan is amazing. Her ability to connect with our son is unmatched and second to none.

R.D./Sep 13, 2023

I was skeptical how virtual speech therapy would be beneficial, or how my son would connect with a therapist, but Meaghan was really excellent. By the end of our time with Expressable, my son was looking forward to sessions and was fully engaged the whole time. I can't say enough good things about Meaghan, I would recommend her to anyone!

We love our provider (Meaghan) and she has a great connection with my daughter. She is always modeling and doing checks for understanding on how adults can be working with her. It's helpful. She also has great communication with the family.
