Speech-Language Pathologist - Latham

Are you a compassionate Speech‑Language Pathologist who believes that young children can meet their fullest potential when they feel seen, heard, valued, and understood? Have you been searching for the right workplace to build a long‑term career where your skills will help autistic and neurodivergent students express themselves—and where you, too, can shine?

As a Speech‑Language Pathologist for our preschool‑aged students, you will do more than provide comprehensive speech and language assessment, therapeutic intervention, and consultation services. You’ll work with a multidisciplinary team to propel children toward a successful journey, building their sense of self‑worth as they discover how best to express their ideas, needs, and wishes. By partnering with educators, families, and related service providers, you’ll give each child the opportunity to have an entire team who understand how to generalize skills in various settings.

Our clinicians are afforded a strong degree of professional autonomy, with decision‑making guided by best practices, evidence‑based interventions, and the best interests of students. We provide therapy resources and supports, including assessment materials, AAC supports, assistive technology, curriculum resources, and professional development as needed.

This is a chance to do purpose‑driven work for an organization that aligns with the values that likely inspired you to enter this profession in the first place. Here, you can turn compassion into action and make a profoundly meaningful impact.
