Welcome to MySpeechPath

Specializing in pediatric communication disorders, MySpeechPath is committed to providing speech, language and oral motor/swallowing services to children in the Northern Virginia.  We provide a personal service to you and your child to ensure the best possible outcome.  The ability to communicate is the foundation for successful participation in family, social, and academic activities. 

The goal of MySpeechPath is to provide the highest quality of service possible to children and their families.  We are focused on diagnosing and treating the unique needs of children with communication disorders.  Because we view families, caregivers, and other professionals as valuable team members, we involve them throughout the evaluation and treatment process. We help parents and caregivers understand every phase of progress and actively involve them in their child's improvement by providing training and activities specific to their child's needs .  These powerful strategies and tools aid in their child’s progress. A family's commitment and support is instrumental in a child's development and progress.  We are here to help you on that path.
