Hello!
Welcome to my page! I'm Ms. Kerry, a licensed speech-language pathologist and Orton-Gillingham reading tutor in Charleston, SC. I grew up in Syracuse, NY and received my undergraduate degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders at The College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio. I then moved to Washington, D.C., where I completed my master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology at The George Washington University. In 2019, I moved to Charleston, SC to start my career and have been loving it ever since!
​
Over the past six years, I have worked with pediatrics in their natural environment and in a clinical setting. For the last three years, I have also worked with adults in a hospital setting. I received my training in Orton-Gillingham in February of 2023 through the IMSE program. If I'm not doing speech or reading therapy, you will probably find me training for a marathon or playing pickleball!
My Mission
At Charleston Reading SLP, LLC, my mission is to provide holistic pediatric speech and reading therapy that fosters communication and reading development through the power of movement, multi-sensory experiences and a patient-centered approach. As a speech therapist in a multi-disciplinary setting, I saw first hand the impact movement and sensory regulation had on my client's speech and language development. When opening my practice, my goal was to build on these strengths by creating a space for children to embrace movement and share experiences with peers.
