Services are in-home in the Newbury, MA area and via teletherapy anywhere in MA. Thank you for visiting North Shore AAC. My name is Michelle Britt-Thompson, MS, CCC-SLP. I am a pediatric speech-language pathologist specializing in the evaluation and treatment of children with complex communication needs. I bring over 20 years of experience to North Shore AAC where I provide services to children from the beginning communications stages into adulthood. I have advanced knowledge and experience with multiple AAC systems such as LAMP Words for Life®, TouchChat, Proloquo2go, etc. I am also a certified LAMP Words for Life® professional. After working in the schools providing services to children with complex communication needs, I saw the need for expert private therapy services within my own community. My small, specialized private practice allows me to build trusting and lasting relationships with my clients and their families. Through direct services, parent coaching, and advocacy, it is my goal to help my clients and their families to achieve lasting communication success. I am also excited to offer caregiver consulting services to families nationwide. Caregiver consulting is designed to educate, train, and empower parents and caregivers to effectively advocate for and communicate with their child. Whether parents are just exploring AAC as a means of communication or are looking for more advanced support, I am able to provide services to address almost any topic related to AAC and/or LAMP Words for Life®. As an SLP with a diverse professional background, I am also aware of the importance of empowering professionals with the skills necessary to confidently support their clients who use AAC. Training for speech-language pathologists, SLPAs, teachers, para-educators, personal care assistants, and other professionals is available nationwide.
