Clinical Experience

Clinical Fellowship (CCC-SLP)

Earned the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) through Clinical Fellowship (CF) at a specialized residential school serving children and young adults with severe autism and intensive emotional and behavioral support needs within an ABA-based educational model. Clinical experience focused on low- and high-tech AAC systems, total communication, and individualized communication support across classroom and residential environments.

This rigorous experience profoundly shaped Willow’s clinical foundation, strengthening her ability to support even the most complex communication needs.

Public, Private & Charter Schools

Provided comprehensive evaluations and therapy services for students across a wide range of speech-language disorders, while collaborating closely with special education teams, occupational therapists, physical therapists, teachers, educational audiologists, and ABA professionals.

Additional experience included specialized services at a private school for children who exclusively used hearing aids and cochlear implants.

Early Intervention (Birth–3)

Provided developmental evaluations, speech-language therapy, feeding therapy, and caregiver coaching for babies and toddlers diagnosed with developmental disorders, prematurity, cognitive delays, speech-language delays, autism, hearing loss, and other conditions.

Extensive multidisciplinary collaboration and close mentorship deepened Willow’s expertise in early communication and development.

Home Health
Adult & Pediatric

Delivered functional, in-home therapy for individuals with aphasia, stroke, traumatic brain injury, motor speech disorders, swallowing disorders (dysphagia), and a wide range of pediatric communication disorders, while partnering closely with caregivers and families.

Outpatient Rehabilitation
Adult & Pediatric

Evaluated and treated speech, language, cognition, fluency, voice, and hearing disorders across pediatric and adult populations.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

Prior to becoming a Speech-Language Pathologist, Willow worked as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), team leader, and ABA case manager across home, school, clinic, and community settings. These experiences strengthened her understanding of the relationship between communication and behavior while deepening her skills in caregiver coaching.

Telepractice

Since 2020, Willow has developed extensive telepractice experience serving children and adults across a wide range of educational and clinical settings. She has delivered virtual speech-language services across preschool, elementary, middle, and high school, as well as through Extended School Year (ESY), compensatory education, homeschool programs, Early Intervention, and private practice.

Today, Willow brings the depth of her clinical expertise to Beautiful Communication, providing exceptional telepractice services for children, teens, adults, and families with diverse communication needs.

  • Parent and family coaching

  • Counseling related to all communication disorders

  • Fluency and stuttering disorders

  • Social-pragmatic communication, including differences associated with speech and language disorders, autism, ADHD, and other neurodevelopmental conditions
