About Kelly
License #: 7400I’m a licensed speech-language pathologist with over 20 years of experience helping children and adults with communication challenges. I specialize in stuttering therapy for children, teens, and adults, with a focus on helping people feel more comfortable, confident, and capable in their everyday communication. I also have extensive experience working with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers with speech and language delays. I enjoy helping young children develop their communication skills while giving parents practical ways to support their progress at home. I offer in-person therapy in the Franklin and Brentwood areas, as well as virtual stuttering therapy throughout Tennessee, New Jersey, and Florida.
My Therapeutic Approach
My approach to therapy is individualized, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. When working with people who stutter, I address both the physical aspects of speech and the thoughts, feelings, and experiences that can influence communication. Depending on each person’s needs and goals, therapy may include speech strategies, reducing avoidance, building confidence, and developing greater comfort and flexibility when speaking. The goal isn’t simply to speak more fluently, but to communicate more freely and confidently in everyday life. With younger children, I use a play-based approach that makes learning natural and engaging. I also work closely with parents, providing practical strategies they can use to support their child’s communication throughout the day.
Who I Help Best
I work with adults, teens and children who stutter, whether they’re just beginning to explore therapy or have been managing stuttering for many years. Some are looking for ways to make speaking feel easier, while others want to feel more confident, reduce avoidance, or become more comfortable speaking in everyday situations. I also work with infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children who are experiencing speech or language delays, including children with developmental differences. I enjoy partnering with families to help young children build their communication skills through play and everyday interactions.
What a First Session Is Like
Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and talk about what brings you or your child to therapy. I’ll ask questions about communication history, current concerns, and what you’d most like to work on. We’ll also explore how these challenges may be affecting everyday life, whether that’s speaking at work, participating in school, or communicating with family and friends. For younger children, the first visit often includes play-based activities and observation, along with time to talk with parents about their child’s development. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling heard, comfortable, and with a clearer understanding of how we can move forward together.
