Meet The Team
Hi! My name is Jenna Simmons, and I am a certified Speech Language Pathologist and the founder of Speech at Play in Connecticut. I am passionate about working with kids to equip them with the tools to successfully communicate within their natural environments. My approach is centered on caregiver education to ensure productive carryover of strategies and skills at home.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences at the University of Connecticut and Master's Degree in Speech Language Pathology from Baylor University. I hold a Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association, and a Connecticut Speech Language Pathology professional license. I am an active member of the American Speech-Language Hearing Association and Connecticut Speech-Language Hearing Association.
I have extensive experience working with pediatrics in a variety of settings including schools, private practice, outpatient clinics, teletherapy, early intervention and in-home therapy. I have seen the most success within the natural environment including teletherapy where the caregiver can also be involved in the treatment plan!
