Speech Connect, SLP directory, private practice growth, ASHA ProFind alternative, and access to speech therapy, this episode covers it all.
Dr. Jeanette Benigas sits down with Jordyn Montique, MS/SLP (@jrc_theslp), founder of Speech Connect, a new free, community-driven directory for licensed speech-language pathologists. Speech Connect allows families to filter by identity, specialty, neurodiversity-affirming care, insurance type, private pay, teletherapy, and more, FOR FREE, without requiring the CCC.
In this conversation, they discuss why families struggle to find the right SLP, how long waitlists limit access to care, why representation in speech-language pathology matters, how private practice owners can build sustainable referral networks, and why decentralizing gatekeeping in the profession is critical to the field's future.
