Hi, I'm Patrick!

I am a New Jersey and Pennsylvania licensed speech-language pathologist and I am the founder of Dynamic Speech Therapy. I received my Master of Science in Communication Disorders from Stockton University. I have worked at a pediatric outpatient clinic since I graduated, which has allowed me to get experience working with a wide range of ages and disorders alongside of other related disciplines.  I have special training in augmentative and alternative communication and gestalt language processing (Natural Language Acquisition framework). I have completed more than 20 hours of specialized training for assessing and supporting Gestalt Language Processors.  I am also passionate about working with late talkers, children with speech intelligibility difficulties, and children that have general delayed speech and language development. In therapy, I am passionate about developing a strong social relationship with the kids I work with by incorporating their strengths and preferred interests. I focus on child led, play based therapy that targets functional communication skills.  I think it's incredibly important to work closely with the families of the children I work with.
