MEET YOUR SPEECH THERAPIST
LAUREN GREENLIEF, M.A., CCC-SLP
Founder, Speech-Language Pathologist
Hello and welcome to Inspire Connections Therapy! I am Lauren Greenlief— a wife, momma, and pediatric speech therapist.
I have been a practicing speech therapist for nearly a decade with a focus on working with complex communicators and autistic children. In 2022, I opened Inspire Connections Therapy to provide families in my Twinsburg, OH community with high-quality and compassionate speech therapy. Recognizing the long wait lists, in and out appointments, and the need for neurodiversity-affirming services in our area, it was important to me to support families by going beyond the traditional therapy model. I have a huge passion for AAC and Autism support, and so often, I saw families get evaluations and recommendations only to feel lost trying to figure out the next steps.
At Inspire Connections Therapy, we provide full support in our clinic or refer out to other professionals who can help and treat our families the way we would want to be supported. It is my mission to help every parent see their child for all the wonderful things that they are, not the deficits or diagnoses that are identified in an assessment. All children deserve to be seen in a positive and inclusive light.
As a mother myself, I appreciate how important parents' roles are in supporting children on their communication journey. Understanding your child's needs is essential, as is using effective strategies to support them. I hope that we can work together to build confident communicators!
I also offer courses and AAC mentorship. Click here to learn more.
