Our Team

Beth Schneider

M.S. CCC-SLP

I am a Speech Language Pathologist with a passion for helping kids develop language and social skills throughout childhood. I have worked with kids  of all ages from early intervention to 18+. I have worked with children in early intervention, home health, and in the school system. I love working with kiddos impacted by motor speech/apraxia, autism, or language delays.  I have experience with Augmentative Communication and believe that every person should have a voice. I have a passion for social skill intervention. I have had training in the areas of Hanen, PROMPT, and PECS.

I have worked in a variety of settings including early intervention , public schools, and home health. I am passionately committed to supporting children with motor speech/ apraxia, language delays, and autism. I am PROMPT trained, have attended the Hanen It Takes Two to Talk and the More Than Words courses, and am currently in the process of becoming a certified Play Project consultant. My goal is to support families in celebrating their child's strengths and teaming closely with them to increase their child's skills and development.
